    #105 - Through the Darkness

    Explicit

    In this episode, I talk with Tyler Gathercoal, Kristopher Gathercoal and Tollef Sorenson about their music video Reunited from their band Through the Darkness. This episode marks the seventh in a series of exclusive conversations that were recorded on site at the 16th Annual Iowa Independent Film Festival. Topics Include: Intro to Band Members, Submitting Music Videos to Film Festivals, Musical Style, Concept for the Music Video, When Should a Song Have a Music Video, How the Band Began, Awards, Studio Project, How Best to Support Local Music, Cover Music, Thoughts on Marvel and Star Wars, Data and more. Learn More About Through the Darkness: Through the Darkness binds alternative rock, heavy metal, and ballads in a way that no two songs sound alike. Short radio-friendly tunes are common as six-minute epics. This is a highlight of their live performances, which span genres and tones all anchored in their approach to expressing what makes us human; anger, hope, and total despair. Their inspirations include relationships with friends and loved ones, existentialism, mental health, and exploring ideas that are both imaginative and visionary. Musical inspirations include All That Remains, Bullet for my Valentine, Breaking Benjamin, A Day to Remember and many more.
