Escape The Fate Reveal "Ungrateful" Video
LOS ANGELES, CA (March 7th) - Escape The Fate have debuted their heavily anticipated new video for "Ungrateful" today on Vevo. Pick up on the song on iTunes. The video was directed by Frankie Nasso (Asking Alexandria, I See Stars, HELLYEAH, Mudvayne) and is an intense journey through the horrible cycle caused by bullying and domestic violence.
Drummer Robert Ortiz had this to say about the video:
"Ungrateful started out as a song meant to be a middle finger to haters. However, we realized that it was important for us to make a truly powerful statement that was bigger than us. We are extremely proud of the new video. It wasn't easy for us to make a video with real meaning behind it. But, we did our best to expose an ugly reality in the best way Escape The Fate knew how. We hope people will connect to it and respond in a positive way."
Despite giving their lead single and title track away for free for 24 hours on AltPress.com, the track landed on iTunes' rock singles chart at the #2 and sold a staggering 4,500 in the first week - supporting the claim that the band's quality of music is better than ever.
Ungrateful, the band's fourth full-length, will be released on May 14th on Eleven Seven Music.
