Chicago indie rock band Neptune's Core are celebrating the release of their new Called Upon EP today with a new music video.

The visual for their new song “Bunga” was directed by the band with editing done by bassist Hannah Richter, who said this about working on the video:

"Throughout the video, you will find clips where Jackie seems fine, but underneath her cold face is pent up anger and a shattered soul. During other clips, you get to see Jackie really let go. She shows brokenness in all of its glory through pained expressions and a look in her eyes that tells the viewer her story–one that isn't necessarily felt by all. We really wanted to make sure that what Jackie is feeling was seen rather than ignored as the song describes."

Vocalist Jackie Cywinski said this about “Bunga”:

“I wrote Bunga during a time when finding who I truly was seemed nearly impossible. There is so much pressure put on people growing up to determine what they should be interested in–it can be suffocating.

Two years ago, these feelings were really overwhelming, so I wrote this song in order to put all my emotions out there. It can be so difficult to be vulnerable; reliving hard, emotional times is nerve wracking, but the rewarding feeling of screaming the lyrics into the mic outshines any nerve."

Tomorrow (August 26), Neptune's Core will hold a record release show at Metro with special guests Motel Breakfast and OK Cool. Tickets for the show are on sale to the general public here. Called Upon is out on digital services right now via Side Hustle Records.
