While Kylesa may have their new album, Exhausting Fire, out now available where music is sold, their newest video for the single “Lost and Confused” is another one to consider. So far the band has announced tour dates for the new album.
Let’s get one thing straight, Kylesa is not just a person, rather it is a multiperson made by one group of musicians. Phillip Cope, Laura Pleasants, and Carl McGinley are the members of Kylesa and they have been exploring all the genres of music ranging from psychedelic rock to an 80s revival. The song in itself is intense and dark, but this video is its compadre for the understanding of its darkness with moving pictures. Whenever a band comes to making a debut album or a saga album of their components, usually the stylistic components have yet to be developed. But this new album is a compilation of just pieces of strumming that they have incorporated into one being. As if the idea of the album isn’t trippy enough, the whole compositions that have been arranged are based on the way in which one person could be converged within separate parts.
The music video is more like an allusive act into showing how intense or how dark the song may be. Whether its drowning in a pool of water, or blood, whether it is fire consuming the one thing every human must obtain in their lifetime, or a number of things that other musicians have incorporated into their music videos to show some humanistic traits, this video is a pale comparison of what makes the band Kylesa, Kylesa as they are known. If you don’t believe me then you can just ask the video yourself. Watch it and learn what it is that makes this band truly an identifier to the cogs an wheels that run every bit of it.
