Employed To Serve Unveils New Single 'Fallen Star' and Music Video


British metalcore band Employed To Serve have recently released the title track from their upcoming album, Fallen Star. The new single is accompanied by a music video directed by David Brodsky, known for his work with Cattle Decapitation and The Black Dahlia Murder. Both the single and music video are now available to stream on YouTube and Spotify.

The title track, 'Fallen Star', explores themes of burn-out, isolation, and overcoming challenges. In an interview, vocalist Justine Jones shared insight into the song's meaning and creation. According to Jones, 'Fallen Star' is about enduring the emotional toll of watching someone close by struggle with their own demons. The lyrics convey a sense of helplessness and frustration, with the need to distance oneself from someone who continues to self-sabotage.

Jones stated that the song's themes centre around the lyrics of the band's upcoming album, Breaking Bad Habits and Overcoming Life's Challenges. As the title track, 'Fallen Star' was chosen due to its thematic resonance with the album's overall narrative.

The music video for 'Fallen Star' reflects the isolated and expansive atmosphere evoked by the song's lyrics. In an effort to capture this essence, the video was designed to resemble a vast, ethereal landscape. The visual representation of emotion is conveyed through striking imagery, creating an immersive experience for audiences.

Employed To Serve will be touring live in support of their upcoming album, with numerous dates scheduled across the UK during April 2025. Fans can expect to see the band perform alongside Celestial Sanctuary and Burner at venues such as KK's Steel Mill, The Cat House, and Clwb Ifor Bach, among others.
