Among the huge amount of talent in the UK underground, London metal teenage five piece Within Reach are making some noise.
Their new single, Hesitate, is a very well polished slice of metalcore that is more melodic than some of their previous offerings, but still packs a punch. Check out the Hesitate video here:
We know it was, but it really doesn’t look like it was filmed in the UK with a sky like that. Bonus points for the fireworks too. Within Reach’s guitarist Bailey Dopson gives an explanation on what their new single is all about:
“I wanted the narrative point of this song to open the listeners eyes. Life has its obstacles and sometimes we get consumed by these things that make us lose sight of what matters and our true selves. It’s even harder watching loved ones go through these motions and this is what the song was born from. The lyrics come from the stand point of these loved ones because I wanted to convey the juxtaposition in value to how someone can view themself compared to how valuable they are through the eyes of the people around them which is what I felt was a subject that needed light shed on it because I feel this song is a song people need to hear in the masses. The song moved me as I wrote it, I’m confident it’ll do the same for the people.“
