Point North

This right here is a piece of anthemic, emotional pop-punk that simply reeks of 2007 in the best possible way.

Think Mayday Parade. Think Boys Like Girls. Think Point North.

The band's debut EP 'A Light In A Dark Place' will be the first release of Michael Vampire's label Dark Kingdom (Artery Label Group / Sony) this year.

"'Dearly Departed' is really about loss and the feeling of disconnection," explains the band.

"It could be a part of you that you somehow lost along the way, or a person in your life that was gone too soon. We really wanted to portray a sense of despair, and the feeling of knowing that no matter what you do, some things you cannot change.

"We wanted this song to be a safe place for listeners, and to know that they're not alone when dealing with this sort of thing. Hence the kid in the music video. He finds the band and suddenly everything starts to look up. All it takes is a point in the right direction.”

Point North is an American band based in Los Angeles, CA.
