The intense clip was inspiringly produced in Queens, N.Y., by Derek Soto and Marissa Ann of Sinestra Studios.

Actress Jaime Ileana provides a stunning performance as a disturbed, yet hopeful woman.

“The topic of depression is a tough one,” Colossal recently posted. “Possibly the toughest job of the day was done by Jaime. She was so patient and professional. She had a tough role to play, and she knocked it out of the park.”

Colossal will be making another video for “No Way to Live,” the veteran Jersey Shore band’s best-ever LP recorded by their longtime producer Tony Lewis at HiVoltage Music in Shrewsbury.

See Colossal on June 9 at The Break AP in Asbury Park and Aug. 4 opening for King’s X at The Vogel in their hometown of Red Bank.
