Hey everybody :) I realise that the music video for Same Graves could be taken as sacrilegious or offensive to some people. I apologise in advance to anyone that it has offended. The reason that the video is so obviously in your face and aggressive, is because I didnt want the song to be swept under the rug as a, God-bashing hardcore song. It really pains me to see people have already been saying this when Its actually almost the complete opposite. Id firstly like to point out that people who know me would say, Im a very spiritual person. I will always stand behind the positive values of Christianity and most religions alike. I also wholeheartedly believe there is a higher power and will never look down on anyone finds happiness in faith. When I wrote this song my aim was not at all for it to be blasphemous, my aim was purely to portray the negative aspects of what happens when a good book or scripture written thousands of years ago is paraphrased, or used in order to perpetuate the views of hateful, jealous and small minded individuals. I do and will always write from my heart and I think its very important as a lyricist to be one hundred percent honest and direct to everyone that takes the time out of their day to listen to our music and read our lyrics. Living within the values of Christianity and most religions alike will always be a great way to ensure that you are wholeheartedly a good person. I will never contest that. I personally believe that we can live in a, heaven, (a place of peace and contentment) on Earth if you so choose or hell. While heaven can be seen as a beacon of hope if people are going through difficulties in life, I encourage you to look within yourself right now as you were made to and realise that it is also available to you all the time if you feel love in yourself and the people around you. Thank you for all the love and support and I cant wait to hear what you all have to say about the rest of the album! William
