Foxing - "Indica" (Official Video) 

I cannot express how much gratitude I have for this band for coming into existence and their countless acts of genuine artistic ability that inspire me to be the best I can on a daily basis. So thank you Foxing and everyone who had something to do with them.

the actors in this music video are hella good

This song hit me in the feels before I even listened to the lyrics. Then, I read the lyrics and listened again. Well, to say I almost cried is an understatement. As a combat vet too this hits really close to home.

Trying to apply for jobs and i get this notification. Now I'm just sorta crying in strabucks.

This makes me cry - it’s so beautiful and To anyone who found this and is watching - We love you.

No one leaves the service intact. Thank you for this.

I think the guy used to be the woman's boyfriend/husband and he died. Now he's watching his wife with her new partner on the monitors (symbolising him watching down from heaven). That's why he's happy when she's smiling and sad when she's getting abused. Just my interpretation

I like to think this video is a portrayal of an old, worn universe ("God") watching it's creation and wondering and longing for what it must be like to be human. 1:02 you see palace like funishings adorned in gold representing heavenly splender while "God" is disabled in a wheel chair unable to do anything to help. 5:48 the lights above his head showing him to be amongst the stars. The whole time throughout every emotion shared equally as the humans experience them showing omnipresence... This all comes round full cicle to the message of the song being about the atrocities of war and the long lasting consequences for the ones who participate... The echoes of the young one's screams reaching out into eternity and the immense pain the universe must also be feeling experiencing it.

this had me in tears. i absolutely love this version of the song. the video is so beautiful

Conor is just so beautiful even when you can't see his face

This is amazing and the version is hauntingly beautiful. Super glad to see you're still working with Tancred. You guys had so much chemistry with them on tour

Seems to go back to the albatross's roots. I enjoyed the first rendition but whatever makes the band happy. Been keeping up with them since seeing them live with Brand New

Why is it only showing my views?

A cinematic masterpiece. Amazing job to all of them.

I keep coming back to this song year after year and it never fails to make me cry uncontrollably at the same moment, when he sees her through the screen as she’s looking back into the mirror. He’s so proud of her and I don’t even have the words for how hopeless it feels. He’s so gone, so sufficiently tortured that his life there almost make his purgatory feel cozy. You know his life ended long before but for him it’s all the same. He’s relived those memories over and over, slowly replacing himself. The pride he has for her isn’t his. Hes twisted that guilt into real moments of relief and escape by crafting memories for them that he can be proud of when that’s really just an addiction now. He can’t be proud of her, and they will never have a chance to experience those mundane moments that he’s desperately clinging to now, feeling whatever emotion he can by deluding himself that it’s them. It’s so tragic, but that moment also makes me so angry. She’s not growing through puberty, she never will. The look of pride is so palpable and so sickening from the man who killed her that it’s disgusting. How dare he use them to escape his guilt. Yet he’s not a villain either. We know his life ended then too. It’s that look, that’s when you know everything is just a self soothing cycle. Nobody is redeemed, no one will have a happy ending or be able to heal. The fact his delusions are so strong makes it even sadder. Guilt replaced that man a long time ago. I’ve hated myself for ways I’ve hurt people, and I can begin to understand that feeling, the way that guilt twists from something real felt for how you hurt them, into a self soothing self loathing. Selfishly feeling bad because of how you were tormented by what you did. It hurts man, it becomes the reason for who you are and the reason you hate yourself, trapped by tides we can’t be untouched by. I can’t imagine killing a child, or the guilt I would feel, but I can certainly understand why he had to kill himself off and become a body for the family. Consistently and easily one of the most impactful artists in my life for how they can tell a story that impacts me so deeply, through something I could never relate to or begin to understand

saw this band open for balance and composure and did not know who they were. Man they were amazing

Thanks, Jarrod Alonge

And on tides we can’t be untouched by Of troubles stay when lids lay over eyes The frames and faces I’ve mistaken For kids whose lives I may have taken And if so, do I haunt their parents dreams? And in so, am I summarized by sounds of young lung screams? Their young one’s screams And of war bonds and blood stained hands Combat neurosis shys from indica strands And it breaks my mother’s heart to know I came back broken With the thought of my arms spilt open And if so, would bring their parent’s peace? And if so, could I give back the sounds of their children’s screams? Let go of what I’ve seen And if so, do I haunt their parents dreams? And in so, am I summarized by sounds of young lung screams? Their young one’s screams

I can hear the mobius... praise the strymon...

My two favorite artists together💕

i'm not crying, you're crying!!

I think I like this version slightly better.

Incredibly vivid and heavy,the video is perfectly adapted to the sound,it’s artistic on such a scale,amazing.

foxings music videos are always so beautiful and deep, i love how it nots just a music video but also kinda like a short film

For some reason this reminds of the bands *Brand New* and *Dear Hunter*

I just finished a cover of this song. I flippin love this song they are the best!

words cannot express what this band means to me. brilliant heartbreaking

I love this version!

This band knows how to hit my feelings.

5:02-5:31 feels like a dream its just so beautiful. Thank you Foxing I'm grateful that you came into my life.

Jess Abbot! Love her.

This song is pure perfection consumed buy it’s own self.

I love this version so much

this is one of the most beautiful things ever created...humans...

Truly amazing

All levels of yes.

I needed this. ❤️

Thank you for this.

Ngl was not expecting to get so damn invested in that video. Ffs Triple Crown Records, I was on a Punk/Ska binge until I came across a Foxing video, now 3+ songs later I'm stuck down this Rabbit hole (Foxhole maybe?) of Foxing songs. Send Help

Super!

First time hearing this song and THE CHILLS

Mesmerizing.

I think the man watching the TV is a vet dealing with PTSD and guilt for killing some parent's kids in combat. The family in the TV are the parents of those kids and he is imagining what their life was like before and after their kids death ("Do I haunt their parents dreams?"). All he wants is to bring their parents peace ("And if so would I bring their parents peace? Bring back their children's screams"). What a punch in the gut... especially as a parent. Very sad.

I fell in love with the way Conor sang this live and wanted to hear it again so bad. This sounds pretty similar so I'm happy, but the video has me hella sad

So the band said that they made this in honor of one of the members service . And that it represents ptsd and mental issues of that nature. The rest is for interpretation….. So my gathering of this video- is that the man in the wheelchair is obviously the combat vet. I believe the woman was his wife, and he had to leave her due to his mental issues upon returning to “normal life” and he never could adjust back after the things that happened . He came back broken, if you will. There’s evidence of this because he is fond of the woman. He smiles when she does, and gets upset when she’s upset. I believe the daughter is his. And the wife thinks about him even though she’s happy in the other marriage. (The kitchen scene) the daughter reminds her of him, and she still grieves him. And the combat vet is watching them through screens, not truly but metaphorically. Anyone that’s ever had a mentally tough time knows that it feels like we watch “normal” people and “normal” families through a screen.

My heart is happy.

This song already got me in my feels, now this version and this music video just fucking have me crying

this is beautiful

THE FEEEELS

holy shit. play "we were only dreaming" by tides of man right after this song

Headed to basic training soon!

Fuck, WHY FOXING. SO BEAUTIFUL.

jess

Why does this masterpiece have so little views, while shit like Work has millions?

I’m not crying, you’re crying...😭

It's very similar to the film "The Lives of Others"

this is haunting and real

Heart breaking

this song really gets to me :'(

this would work so well in the punisher netflix series

Heavy.

Alguien me puede explicar dd que trata el video :( ? Amor el sonido !!

beauty

This is simply gorgeous on multiple levels. But I have so many questions 1. What's the music video about 2. Why is this a different version (not that I'm complaining) 3. Who's the girl singing

forgot bout Jess Abbot - Now Now we also great, at least in the earlier days

what's the instrument that makes the higher pitched melody at 2:25?

deep

nadiak

is too damn feeelsl :,)

Crying

This hit me hard after my dpeloyments... fuck man. all for what :( ... nothing sometimes. At least I got something out of it. At least I got out the hood... thats a positive right?

the girl singing is tancred?

I love you Shelly. I'm sorry.

Wait so what happened in the video? Who was the guy watching the family? :/

Fucking beautiful

I'm not sure if I'm in any right place to explain the story behind indica so don't quote me on this , but from what I've heard a member of the band was in the army and there was an incident in which he killed someone (I've heard it was a child but again I don't know) and the song expresses how the drugs and shit they have them in the army made them do things they didn't want to , I cry too much at this song

Hey, babes.

what's the lyrics exactly about..?

Man this video has me confused, but I think the guy is in the family's house. the bed and the lamp look the same.

Mute this music video and play If I could Turn Back the Hands of Time" by R Kelly in the background.

For just a small moment you can see the actress is wearing an ISAF//coalition shirt (the red shirt with flags)

....

Kinarf

Is it weird to feel bad for the guy that's watching the family?

Holy fuck

wait, what the fuck

Hey Foxing, Brand New wants their song back

this band is too depressing

LITERALLY play Jesus Christ over this. Such. A. Rip. Off.

When you're listening to Sorority Noise then a band you hate comes on.....thanks RU-vid -_-

God damnit. Foxing singlehandedly keeps my tear ducts in business. Came home and no one I loved ecen recognized me anymore.
