Against The Current has released a haunting new music video for “Dead Man Walking,” a track originally released in May. It’s preceded by the release of their single, “Heavenly.” The band explains, “‘Dead Man Walking’ is about how the cost of survival was the person you used to be. It explores the return home from war only to find that, although everything looks the same, you yourself are so deeply different that you no longer fit.” They add, “There’s a stranger staring back at you in the mirror, the ghost of someone you once were. Everyone thinks you’re fine because… Read more »
After starting to tease their collaborative single last week, Against The Current frontwoman Chrissy Costanza has teamed up with VOILÀ for her debut solo single, “7 Minutes In Hell.” The explosive track arrives with a gorgeously shot, cinematic music video that captures the divide between Heaven and Hell, as depicted in the song’s lyrics. “’7 Minutes In Hell’ explores the unsettling reality of how someone else’s Heaven can be your personal Hell,” Costanza shares. “For years, I was bound by others’ expectations, always questioning why I was drawn to what they deemed ‘wrong.’ This song is the awakening after falling… Read more »
We all love a powerful frontwoman, and Against The Current’s Chrissy Costanza fits the bill. The band’s new single “silent stranger” introduces fans to their “nightmare era,” which is chock-full of black and white imagery and a dark-pop edge that elevates their classic sound. It’s all about shedding the persona they’ve created for themselves and the challenges of reclaiming their authentic identity. There comes a point when the reflection in the mirror looks like a complete stranger, which Costanza sings in the lyrics, “I know all the lies/I brought to life/Now I don’t know how to be someone real/Hate that… Read more »
A show where The Wrecks co-hosted, Against The Current, Kat Cunning and you guys called in plus I called Young Rising Sons to ask them if I could play “Last Week On A Friday” (I was going to anyway)
New York’s Against The Current is entering a new era and on the latest episode of The Gunz Show, they hit the mic to let us know what to expect.
After the release of “that won’t save us”, the band has plenty in the pipeline. Listen in as Gunz asks them when to expect new music—and what kind of sound they’re going for these days. They also chat about reinventing the band during quarantine, ordering too much delivery food, and more!
This week we chat with Chrissy Costanza, who first rose to fame as the lead singer of Against the Current and has since become one of the most recognizable female voices in gaming. We find out about how Chrissy first met her bandmates, Will Ferri and Dan Gow, and how they quickly caught the attention of label Fueled By Ramen (Warner Music, home of Twenty One Pilots, Panic! At The Disco, All Time Low, and more).
After a critically acclaimed debut album and a sold-out world tour, Chrissy was approached by Riot Games in 2017 to be the voice of the League of Legends anthem “Legends Never Die”, which has had over 200 million streams. 2020 has kept Chrissy in the studio with her ATC bandmates working on their forthcoming album which is sure to be their breakthrough offering, as well as embarking on hosting her own show as one of the founding talents on the gaming x music culture network, Venn.
With Past Lives, ATC is more pop, more powerful, and more tangible than ever before.
