Hungarian Metal Mavericks Nest of Plagues Present "Mundane" Music Video
Mundane is about the overwhelming fear of living an ordinary life. You might suffer in isolation for your entire life because you fear the question of whether you’re special or just another puppet. Everyone tries to find excitement and tries to prove that somehow they’re different which makes this thought even more depressing and scary: in a world where everyone is agonizing over their own significance, can anyone actually become significant?
The song’s music video is set in an arcade, where anyone can quit their everyday lives and escape from reality, if even for an hour. You can get lost in the amusement and skip your ruthless thoughts for a while, but if everyone does that, what is actual reality? The artwork of the single represents the ordinary person – the fireman, the policeman, the lonely guy, the young girl lost in the underworld. But among them, there’s the evil rearing its ugly head.
The song is taken from Nest of Plagues’ third concept album ‘Hellsolation’ being released in September 2024. The album deals with social problems and creates a metaphor for the struggles that we all go through every day. Visually the band puts these messages into a dark cyberpunk universe.

With their lyrics, Nest of Plagues reflects on modern social diseases like social anxiety, depression, and the feeling of loneliness that people can collectively feel. Sharing this message, they encourage people to face their mental problems and connect, use the power of community. Bringing a fresh sound to the stage, they expanded from a metalcore sound into groove metal with elements of alternative metal while still adding a little core edge to the mix. Due to their eclectic image and powerful live performances, they bring a little joy and fun where it seems there is only darkness.
