Watch Vietnam's Video For 'Where Is My Happiness'
Anchored in reflection and grief, the new clip for Vietnam's heavy track 'Where Is My Happiness' finds beauty in derelict urban snapshots. The video lands just a few days before the Te Whanganui-a-Tara post-punk crew drop their sophomore collection This Quiet Room, the follow up to their self-titled debut that came out almost 40 years ago. Kicked back into action after re-releasing their 1985 EP, it's no wonder the singles and video shared so far revisit the idea of finding peace in regrets and loss. Read band co-founder and bassist Adrian Workman's thoughts behind 'Where Is My Happiness', and slip into the Darren Cross-shot clip ahead of the full album launch this Friday...
“A life in review. A lament for the losses in our lives, both existential and realised. The mourning of promised hope that never actualised. As author Robert Bly articulated in Iron John, there is a time when men must take the road of ashes, descent and grief.”
Vietnam's sophomore album 'This Quiet Room' is out this Friday January 28th.
