Melodic metalcore band All In have just released their music video for their new single Capsized. The song comes from the band’s forthcoming debut EP titled, Lost set to release February 5th. The anticipated 5 track album was produced by Zac Buras of Law Studios and mixed and mastered by Erik Bickerstaffe of Paralysis Studios. Jared Dawes had this to say about the video, “I’m so glad to have finally filmed this music video.

I wrote this song to help kids understand that they aren’t alone in their day to day struggles. Whether that be internal or external, your life is worth fighting for.
