Bayside: New Album ‘Vacancy’ Out Now

Bayside debut the video for “Mary”, the third clip to come from the band’s latest album, ‘Vacancy’.

The video finds the band as a narrative backdrop for the story of “Mary,” a young girl with dreams that belie her current station in life. The four-minute clip was directed by JeremiMattern (Danger Films) and filmed in Lubbock, Texas.

‘Vacancy’ was produced by Tim O’Heir (Sebadoh, Hedwig And The Angry Inch) and recorded during Raneri’s time at a Nashville hotel following the dissolution of his marriage. “I wanted this record to be more about what’s happening to me as opposed to having it be all about a disintegrating relationship,” explained Raneri when discussing the themes behind the 11-song release. Alternative Press said of the album, “the band have fully embraced their theatrical side, creating rock music worthy of filling any arena”, while Magnet described Vacancy as “hook-heavy” and “giant-riffed”.
