Hawthorne Heights have debuted their new song “Just Another Ghost,” taken from their forthcoming album Bad Frequencies.

“'Just Another Ghost' is a song about floating through life, and the anxiety that comes with the feeling that life is passing you by,” singer and guitarist JT Woodruff shares. “One second you are having the time of your life, and the next second you feel all alone. Your mood can go from euphoria to panic, until you eventually feel you aren't even there, or you are invisible.”

The video, directed by Benny Gagliardi, features the band performing in two different locations to create the feeling of being in two different worlds.

“We wanted to have a video that matched that feeling and emotion, which is why we shot in two entirely different locations,” Woodruff explains. “We put flyers on the wall at Slidebar from life changing shows that each member of HH personally went to when we were growing up. Then to capture the sadness and loneliness we drove out to Slab City California in a location that was perfectly isolation, like in a dream.

“We wanted it to look like two entirely different worlds, because that's how life can feel sometimes. Anxiety is powerful, and we wanted to capture that raw feeling.”
