Glasgow Kiss are a Norwegian female-fronted Alternative Metal band with a power-rock vibe that will rattle the windows and shake the foundations of your soul! The band just premiered a new music video for the title track off their new full-length album, Down In Flames. The music video was directed by Bård Leite at USF Verftet and Kalandseidet, Norway. This is the third music video taken from their brand new full-length album Down In Flames which was released on December 12, 2025 via Eclipse Records. The album was produced by Glasgow Kiss, and mixed/mastered by Peter Michelsen (Rat City, Madelene, Byting) at The Norwegian Sound studio, with tracking by Dan Mikal Ultang at Secret Location Studio, w/ vocal tracking at Elephant Studios.

Watch their “Down In Flames” hard rock music video right below.

“We chose to shoot a video for “Down In Flames” because of the song’s theme of pressure, struggle, and unity which felt naturally visual, and also because it’s the title track off our new album” says lead vocalist Charlotte Marlen Midtun. “Our first idea was a dark, minimal performance setting, but it evolved into using a circle formation to symbolize fellowship, contrasted with isolated shots of myself to show the ‘back against the wall’ feeling of the lyrics. The aesthetic was inspired by darker alternative rock videos that use light and space to create emotional tension. We focused on simple, strong imagery of shadows, limited light, and confined spaces to mirror the song’s emotional weight.”

The band’s debut full-length album, Down in Flames, is a burst of sweet dichotomy, altered reflections, foils, doppelgangers, and visions of the self through enchanting and fractured perspectives. First off, the lyrics are devastating portraits of loneliness, toxicity, grief and loss, desire and darkness. The contrast; however, is the rhythm guitar sound: a bold power-rock groove that launches us into the stratosphere, almost as if the band first tempts us to make love with our own misery, just to shake it off and rock ‘til we drop. In conjunction with the band’s overall theme of aesthetic duality, lead vocalist Charlotte Marlen Midtun puts on a clinic of tonal dynamics and emotional depth. From captivating soaring high range to powerful gritty belting to delicate passages in the mid-range, her remarkable range makes for a compelling emotional performance. Moreover, and more specifically, one cannot listen to this record without appreciating the mix on the vocals. Charlotte is produced sonically to be right in our ear, deep in our minds straight down through the heart, and when harmonies are added, they are produced as elegant backdrop, a whisper, like lace. This technique would, at first, seem like the natural “go-to” for most projects, but the effect is quite new compared with the latest trend in the industry to bring the harmony tracks equal in volume and tonality, creating what some might refer to as a “choral wash.” Glasgow Kiss; however, do not “wash” or dilute a darned thing. They write our stories, raw and unedited. All things considered, Glasgow Kiss offer us Down in Flames so we can relate to their sorrow and share in their joy. They prove to us that the two opposite viewpoints can live simultaneously, that both can be true, that both make a beautiful, delicate balance. We can confide in Glasgow Kiss. We come to them with our demons, and they give us a safe space. We include them in our victories and they high-five us when we all reach the top of the mountain. The album was produced by Glasgow Kiss, and mixed/mastered by Peter Michelsen (Rat City, Madelene, Byting) at The Norwegian Sound studio, with tracking by Dan Mikal Ultang at Secret Location Studio. Vocal were tracked at Elephant Studios. Artwork for the album and singles was created by Frode Andreassen and Sveinung Sveen. Down In Flames by Glasgow Kiss was released on December 12, 2025 via Eclipse Records.

Glasgow Kiss are back with a furious new music video and single entitled “Forsaken”. The Norwegian Hard Rock / Alternative Metal band’s new music video was directed by Bård Leite at USF Verftet and Kongen in Bergen, Norway. This is the second single & music video taken from their upcoming full-length album Down In Flames which will be released on December 12, 2025 via Eclipse Records. The album was produced by Glasgow Kiss, and mixed/mastered by Peter Michelsen (Rat City, Madelene, Byting) at The Norwegian Sound studio. Tracking by Dan Mikal Ultang at Secret Location Studio, w/ vocal tracking at Elephant Studios.

“The song and video both come from a place of feeling stuck” says lead vocalist Charlotte Marlen Midtun. “As it evolved, the contrast between the black room and the open park became a way to mirror the emotional journey in the song about the quiet weight that builds up when you can’t quite find your way out. There’s something deeply personal in that, even if it isn’t tied to one story. Making this video felt like confronting those feelings head-on, and in that process, we grew as a band. It taught us to trust simplicity, to let emotion lead instead of overthinking. What we hope people take away is that sense of recognition — that even in the dark, there’s something human, something honest, that connects us all.”

Glasgow Kiss are a Norwegian female-fronted Alternative Metal band with a power-rock vibe that will rattle the windows and shake the foundations of your mind! They come right at us with that heavy rhythm guitar groove and a vocal attack that is both rich and addictive. The band just dropped a savage new single and music video entitled “Those Wasted Years“. The music video was directed by Bård Leite at USF Verftet in Bergen, Norway. This is the first single & music video taken from their upcoming full-length album Down In Flames which will be released on December 12, 2025 via Eclipse Records.

The album was produced by Glasgow Kiss, and mixed/mastered by Peter Michelsen (Rat City, Madelene, Byting) at The Norwegian Sound studio. Tracking by Dan Mikal Ultang at Secret Location Studio, w/ vocal tracking at Elephant Studios.

“We decided to film a music video for this track because we wanted to give the song a life beyond just the sound” says lead vocalist Charlotte Marlen Midtun. “Music is powerful on its own, but sometimes the emotions and stories we write about deserve to be seen as well as heard. The video lets us share the atmosphere, the energy, and the message in a way that words and melodies alone can’t always capture. For the darker and more intense parts of the song, we leaned into shadowy, low-key lighting to create tension and intimacy. It gave the impression of being pulled into the raw emotion of the lyrics. When the music opened up—whether with hope, energy, or release—we shifted toward warmer tones and brighter contrasts, symbolizing light breaking through.”
