Going Dutch: Hardcore band 18 Miles releases new music video for “Millennial Waste”

Coming to your eardrums straight from the Netherlands, Dutch hardcore band 18 Miles have released a raucous new music video for the track “Millennial Waste”. A track that tells a story of the current generation of millennials growing up in an era where technology grows more advanced by the day, it’s a track that lies somewhere between early Comeback Kid and newer bands like The Ghost Inside or even Stick To Your Guns. Check out the video below.

Singer Daan says: ‘social division seems a bigger problem than ever. Depression and burnouts are the new trend. Never finish an education or a job, because the lack of persistence that is not taught anymore. ‘Take for example social media’, he continues. ‘People need likes on social media to get confidence, while trying to achieve the same perfect, successful, but totally unrealistic images they are constantly bombarded with online and in the media. This results in a twisted sense of self in a reality that is not real.’

‘People really having trouble with finding a goal and meaning in this life’, Daan concludes. ‘Everybody wants to make a difference in this world, while nobody dares to stand out.’
