Violet Blend join forces with Tired Violence for "My Head Is Broken"
Italian alt-metal band Violet Blend have joined forces with Virginia post-hardcore vocalist Tired Violence for their new single "My Head Is Broken."
Released today, the single comes with a music video directed by Angelo Mura. The visual can be seen below. Vocalist Giada Celeste Chelli said this about the song:
“My Head is Broken" is about all those moments when you felt wrong, unfit, so damaged that you can't be fixed. The song embraces feeling over numbness and the fear of being happy, it portrays a mechanical world where the mind is just a gear and the feelings just lines of code. When you feel empty, dizzy, confused, like you’re sleeping with your eyes open and you blame yourself for not being able to wake up. Sometimes I feel like a broken machine that no one is going to fix, and this song is about it. Sometimes I wonder why I couldn't just live my life and make normal things like everyone else does, it makes me believe there's something broken inside me that causes things not to work out. There are days when I find myself staring into space, without the strength to be able to think, thoughts get confused and a sense of guilt crushes me, leaving me helpless. It's like my head is broken, inside something breaks and can't be fixed, outside everything seems to be fine, because the deepest wounds are never visible on the surface.”
Tired Violence said this about working with the band:
“I'm honored to have been asked to be a part of this track. It's still a bit crazy to me because I am an artist and content creator who lives on the other side of the world I am kind of just winging it as a musician and a stay-at-home dad, yet I'm getting all of these really cool opportunities to work with such talented artists due to how easy it is to contact each other and collaborate in the modern day. It's really exciting and fun. This track, itself, I feel could resonate with a lot of people. There are so many who are feeling so uncomfortable and incapable these days, and I hope this gives them a feeling of being understood and represented.”
Chelli chimed in about working with Tired Violence:
“I'm so proud and honored to have been able to collaborate with such a great talented artist. Tyler with his voice gave the song both sufferance and rage to express the emotional and mental state of the song. He captured the sense of hopelessness of the song I wrote and translated it with his own style and language. The result is pure magic.”
“My Head Is Broken” is out on digital services right now via Eclipse Records.
Violet Blend’s last release was their 2022 studio album Demons.
