FOUR YEAR STRONG RELEASES NEW CLAYMATION VIDEO FOR ‘PARANOIA’

FOUR YEAR STRONG RELEASES NEW CLAYMATION VIDEO FOR ‘PARANOIA’
Salad Days

Fresh off the release of their latest album ‘analysis paralysis’, New England rock band Four Year Strong is excited to share their new music video ‘Paranoia’.

The claymation video features familiar faces from throughout the album’s rollout, as well as cameos from the band’s own clay counterparts. Directed by Benjamin Lieber and animated by Baby Cry Animations. On the new music video, Dan O’Connor shares: “The song ‘Paranoia’ always gave us a mid 90’s MTV kind of a vibe and when it came time to make a video, clay animation was the first thing we thought of. Being able to give life to the characters of ‘analysis paralysis’ s was also a huge part of it!” When it was time for Four Year Strong to prep what would become their sixth album, they were truly, finally, stumped. Vocalist/guitarists Dan O’Connor and Alan Day showed up to producer Will Putney’s studio on day one of recording without a single finished song, in stark contrast to the 40-some ideas they brought to the table for 2020’s ‘Brain Pain’. The result is an album that expands their classic sound in exciting ways – but through it all, it’s unmistakably them: O’Connor and Day’s distinctive vocals atop the airtight rhythm section prowess drummer Jake Massucco and bassist Joe Weiss provide. This deep into their career, there’s really nothing that doesn’t sound like Four Year Strong with these four involved.
