DISTANT SHARE VIDEO FOR “THE SHALLOW GAZE” (FEAT. DARIUS TEHRANI) — WATCH

Today marks another single and video drop from the busy Dutch/Slovakian deathcore outfit DISTANT.

“The Shallow Gaze” (Feat. Darius Tehrani) oscillates between downtuned heaviness and bouncy hardcore grooves. For this video, they teamed up with producers Jachym Belcher and Klara Galle. Watch it here.

The band shares, “When vulnerability becomes a competition, even honesty starts to feel like a weapon. ‘The Shallow Gaze,’ featuring Darius Tehrani of Spite, dives into the paranoia and self-doubt that come with living through trauma while constantly questioning who can truly be trusted.

“The track confronts impostor syndrome and the exhausting need to validate your own suffering in environments where trauma dumping has become a form of one-upmanship. Instead of creating connection, every confession becomes another opportunity to compare scars, measure pain, and prove who has suffered more.

“With its confrontational intensity and deeply personal subject matter, ‘The Shallow Gaze’ captures the psychological toll of constantly questioning the intentions of those around you — and the realization that sometimes, the hardest person to trust is yourself.”
Into Despair will be released on November 6. Pre-order here.
The album is available in the following formats:
Standard CD Jewelcase
Grey LP
Ltd. iridescent pearl dawn LP (limited to 300) available from DISTANT
EcoMix Blue LP (US version)
Digital album
Into Despair is DISTANT’s most personal and emotional work to date, exploring real-life struggles, loss, and the shared grief that connects humanity. The album dives deep into the darker corners of human experience while finding solace in collective understanding.

DISTANT elaborate, “Driven by raw honesty and pure emotion, Into Despair is an album born from personal battles and lived experiences. Every song carries pieces of each member’s own journey, with moments of pain, reflection, and resilience woven into a deeply intimate body of work. More than just a collection of songs, Into Despair is a cathartic expression of vulnerability and a reminder that even in our darkest moments, grief is something we all share. It stands as the band’s most heartfelt and authentic statement yet, transforming personal suffering into something universally resonant.”
DISTANT are keeping things busy and their grim, ultra-heavy deathcore on the road. November and December sees them headlining in the U.S. with support from Heavy//Hitter, Torn Open, and Katywentmissing.
