Revolutionary girl-rock trio TRiDENT delivers an upbeat song and message in the new music video Repaint. Repaint is the band’s 10th music video since its re-formation in early 2020. The music is composed by all three members of TRiDENT and lyrics by lead singer and guitarist ASAKA.
Even with eyes closed, fans should immediately recognize the signature TRiDENT grooves. The inventive guitar licks, thumping bass, and prodigious drumming feel ever fresh and engaging. TRiDENT’s musical bag of tricks runs deep: Repaint features an opening with uplifting, skyward guitars, and the chorus sweetens with layers of synth and piano complementing its hard rock core. This punchy rock tune is accompanied by ASAKA’s often urgent, almost breathless singing as she declares to herself and to us:
Don’t want my future self to look back with regrets
So I paint over today again and again
I draw a map of life with my own colors
