The Juliana Theory Releases ‘A Dream Away’ – First New LP in 15 Years – Today!
The band also released two incredible videos for tracks off of A Dream Away this year. “We’re At The Top Of The World” (Reimagined) starts out by turning the band’s most popular track into a grungy black metal song and video, complete with The Number Twelve Looks Like You’s Jesse Korman in corpse paint rocking out in the woods being filmed by The Dillinger Escape Plan‘s Ben Wieman. After “CUT!” is called, Korman pops his headphones back on and dances through the woods to the real Reimagined version of “We’re At The Top Of The World” – complete with woodland animals singing along.
The moving video for “Better Now” was released on New Year’s Day and seeks to look towards a brighter future and better days ahead – a resonant message in 2021. “This video tells three separate stories of humans battling their own monsters,” Detar says. “Maybe their stories aren’t exactly your story but as the lyric says ‘everyone’s got issues just creeping underneath – secret sleeping demons – no one even sees them – but you can show yours to me.’ Maybe I’m a dreamer but I still believe in the power of art to help us heal so If you’re looking for some encouragement please watch this beautiful video. Here’s to new beginnings.”
