Love Crushed Velvet, the legendary New York pop-rock band, releases a new video for "Blind Emotions."

Following the success of the release of their latest EP titled "Ping Pong In The Bunker," premiered on April 5, 2024, which has garnered nearly 30,000 streams on Spotify to date, the acclaimed band Love Crushed Velvet, known for their unique style and authentic artistic approach, has decided to surprise us all today with a new and spectacular music video for "Blind Emotions," one of the standout promotional singles from their album. Thanks to the magic and talent of this band, the song comes to life through a wonderful audiovisual work that will simply leave you speechless not only for its masterful cinematic work but also for its profound message.



Love Crushed Velvet has been making waves in the music scene for the past decade, ever since their formation in 2010. They have effectively established themselves through a spectacular discography, which includes four studio albums, and a unique fusion of sounds combining elements of indie rock and pop rock to create a refreshing experience that invites listeners to experience strong emotions through their music.


With an incredible lineup featuring A.L.X, at the forefront as vocalist and songwriter, Jimi Bones on guitar, Thommy Price on percussion, and Enzo Penizzotto on bass, Love Crushed Velvet is undoubtedly the "Avengers" of the contemporary indie rock scene, bringing together music legends in a fascinating project that is enjoyable for a broad and diverse audience.



"Blind Emotions" delves into a captivating narrative with which we can all feel familiar in some way, as it addresses a question that we have faced time and time again in the midst of a complicated relationship: "What went wrong?"


Through lyrics that touch the hearts of listeners from the first few seconds, A.L.X's voice guides us through an exciting story in which he skillfully invites us to put ourselves in the shoes of the protagonist. Here, the protagonist experiences a profound reflection on what happens when the true essence of two people who share a deep love comes to the surface, leading to an inevitable clash of personalities that ultimately destroys everything.



Its intricate and sensitive theme, far beyond effectively capturing the attention of listeners, stands as a story of emotional maturation from which we can learn many things, things that can only be learned through experience. Thus, "Blind Emotions" functions as a rope that stretches and ties itself to our feet, pulling us from the soft clouds and vibrant colors of infatuation down to reality itself, grounding us and teaching us how often the qualities we expect the other person to have may simply be projections of our deepest desires. It reminds us that sometimes we overlook the individuality, integrity and the inner perception of our loved ones. 


With exceptional instrumental work, where the guitars and their characteristic and exquisite delay effect align perfectly with the deep bass lines and energetic percussion, the narrative, despite its intensity and potential to reopen old wounds for some, Love Crushed Velvet magically transforms it into an intensely enjoyable experience, inviting us to move forward and learn to leave things behind even when things may not have turned out as we wished.

 

The Music Video

With impressive cinematography, a deep palette of colors, and vibrant imagery, "Blind Emotions" comes to life through two young individuals who share a profound love, yet curiously, we see them together in only one scene. This reveals a deep secret hidden behind this piece, proving not only the musical mastery of this great band but also their ability to communicate a message that goes far beyond chords and notes.


Most of the scenes show our two protagonists alone. The beautiful young woman who takes the lead role in this story is immersed in a world of dreams, happiness, and colors, yet she is almost always seen by herself, in solitude. This illustrates how her illusions and the feelings that lived inside her mind and emotions actually had a greater predominance, even more relevant than the love they both shared. It shows us the contrast between reality and the unknown dream world in which we feel as individuals when we fall in love.
