SEVEN HOURS AFTER VIOLET, the genre-defying, Alternative Metal collective led by Shavo Odadjian (SYSTEM OF A DOWN) has unveiled the powerful new music video for “Float”, released just in time for May’s Mental Health Awareness Month.

Serving as both a reflection and a lifeline, the video captures the weight—and occasional peace—of being submerged in the emotional currents of anxiety, depression, isolation, and hope. “Float” is a standout track from SEVEN HOURS AFTER VIOLET‘s self titled debut full length album out in October 2024.

“The song speaks to the threat of suicide, but more than that, it’s about hope—the push and pull between pain and recovery”, shares Shavo. “We want this track to be a beacon for anyone battling those inner wars.”

Vocalist Taylor Barber shares: ” ‘Float’ is about the feeling of waking up with depression rooted deep inside you. Feeling like a ghost in a shell — existing, but not living. It’s about being consumed by the weight of the world without confronting the inner battles. It’s important for us to express our emotions and let people know they’re not alone.”

SEVEN HOURS AFTER VIOLET is a collision of creative forces. Born from the minds of Shavo Odadjian and multi-platinum producer Morgoth (WINDS OF PLAGUE), the group brings together some of the most innovative musicians in heavy music, including Taylor Barber (LEFT TO SUFFER) on vocals, Alejandro Aranda (SCARYPOOLPARTY) on guitar and backing vocals, and Josh Johnson (WINDS OF PLAGUE) on drums.
