Auckland based group Openside have released the accompanying video for their latest single Character Flaws.
Continuing their theme of epic video clips, Openside and regular video collaborator Shae Sterling have teamed up for a huge production on this new video, shooting extensively in the mysterious location of Guangzhou in China.
The sing will be featured on their upcoming three track release Episode One: Character Flaws out October 19.
Lead singer Possum Plows says the song is about is an anthem for the insecure.
“Character Flaws is an anthem for the insecure,” says Possum. “When you’re sick of people trying to reassure you that things will get better and you just need to find the fun in wallowing in your self-pity for a while.”
The new tune follows the band’s previous two NZ Top 40 singles, No Going Back and I Feel Nothing, their incisive examinations of identity and relationships are resonating with an ever-growing audience.
Openside have toured New Zealand extensively with their own headline tour date as well as opening slots for everyone from Twenty One Pilots and Fall Out Boy to Ellie Goulding and Panic! At The Disco.
The band are led by the gender non binary vocalist Possum, and features members George Powell (drums), PJ Sheperd (guitar), and bassist Harry Carter.
