AGAIN FOR THE WIN RELEASES VIDEO FOR "MERKABAH" FROM NEW ALBUM "WE'VE BEEN HERE FOREVER"



Deep Elm Records press release;

Texas rockers AGAIN FOR THE WIN have released a video for their popular song "Merkabah" off their Deep Elm debut "We've Been Here Forever" released in August 2012. Between the killer guitars and tightly locked rhythm section, you'll hear something different nestled away with every listen of this album opener. By breaking convention and not pulling any punches, the band displays an unabashed sense of individualism...almost uncategorizing themselves in the best way possible. Filmed on location at The Mohawk in Austin, Texas in February 2013. Cinematography, production and editing by Zac Witte.

SEE THE VIDEO HERE

"As the swirling echoes of twin guitars and the dreamy sounds of a keyboard spin and whirl inside my ears I feel as though I have been here forever. I am drifting through the cosmos in a time before time. Then a monstrous percussive boom and an explosion of echo-laden guitars interrupt my dream state suddenly and unexpectedly. The world has just been created. This whole story is told in the magnificent opening track Merkabah..." - Surviving The Golden Age

"Yes, this is emo and unashamedly so in the driving rock from a broken heart / bloody knuckled stance of the lonely pack with nothing to prove and even less to lose 'Amen, Brother!' way that only Texan men with earnest beards can play..." - Pinpoint Music

"AFTW's music falls into that nearly visceral space where heavy is shared by post-rock, radio-rock and art-rock..." - Independent Clauses

"Big on hooks, bigger on atmosphere, and an all-around heady experience. An impressive record..." - Big Takeover
