Cymbals Eat Guitars‘ video for “Definite Darkness,” off Lenses Alien (Barsuk), encompasses all that ’90s alt-rock was about. With some heavy guitar and extremely emotive vocals combined with visuals of triumph, disappointment and social alienation, you’ve got teen angst in one of its most primitive and transparent forms. The clip depicts how emotional and destructive teenage life can be while trying to fit in and be part of a team to feel accepted. This is a video that is so painful yet so liberating. Watch it below.
