Frontman Cody Carson comments, “We are extremely proud to present the music video for our latest single “Hypnotized”. Writing this song was an extremely cathartic experience with all of that pent-up anger being let out; Making this video felt no different.

Songs like this allow you to do that.” Adding a special note to fans he shares, “We also realize that this is one of your favorite tracks on Upside Down and we love giving you all what you want.
