Bastille have shared a new music video for ‘Hope For The Future’

Bastille have released a new music video for their recent album cut, ‘Hope For The Future’, which reflects on past environmental tragedies and maintains optimism about preventing future incidents.

The track was featured on their recent extended release, ‘Give Me The Future + Dreams Of The Past’, but was originally written for the upcoming documentary, ‘From Devil’s Breath’; the film tells the story of wildfire survivors and climate scientists, all of whom are fighting to prevent such environmental emergencies from repeating themselves.

Directed by Oscar-winning Orlando Van Einsiedel and executive produced by Leonardo DiCaprio, the documentary will be available from November 13th, with the new Bastille video - shot in frontman Dan Smith’s London home - having premiered at 4:30pm GMT today, November 3rd.

“I was given the chance to watch ‘From Devil’s Breath’ a while back, and was really moved by the incredibly powerful story that Orlando Von Einsiedel and the team have woven together,” Smith has recalled. It’s a heartbreaking story that’s beautifully told, so when they asked me to write a song for the end credits, it seemed important to make something that felt intimate, but also struck a balance between the more poignant elements of these people’s stories and the hope that the film ultimately gestures towards.
