Fresh off of the release of his newest album REVENGE, Ellery Twining  has delivered an outstanding music video for one of the singles, “WEATHERALL”. Please read on for our full review of the track,  as well as a background on this emerging artist.

You may know him as Rich Freitas, but this is actually a different alias known as Ellery Twining. Now  we have definitely loved our multiple listens of his debut solo record REVENGE,  but the song that needed the music video treatment the most finally has received it. We have linked the video below so that you can check it out for yourself, but let us confidently tell you right now that we hope you check out the record in full as well.

Bringing a much-needed visual component to an imagery filled single such as “WEATHERALL”, Ellery received help on the video editing end from James Canty who has also worked with Spiritualized and Catfish and the Bottlemen. This song is also serving as a tribute to British producer/DJ Andrew Weatherall, who passed as Ellery was writing the songs for REVENGE. In our opinion, it is so nice to see these works of art that will ultimately live on forever. For those who are close to Andrew, they will now forever have these songs and the video to come back to and enjoy when times are tough.

So much of what we enjoyed about this song and video is how the tone perfectly matches up with the cinematography and the way it was shot. The song itself is a tad melancholy at times and so we are thrilled that the video actually took the mood and the atmosphere into consideration. It might be obvious, but truly the lyricism presented here is top notch in all capacity. Ellery has gone above and beyond in his songwriting capabilities and it transcends “WEATHERALL” into the entirety of the record. Our suggestion would be to check out the video first, but once you fall in love, please go ahead and check out the rest of the record to experience an artist in top form.

With all that being said, we’ve included the most important links below to listen, follow along, and of course to keep up with all future releases and information. Enjoy!
