HALOCENE Face Their Darkest Moments With “Terrified”

HALOCENE have released the official music video for “Terrified,” one of the most emotionally exposed tracks from their 2026 album When Love Dies. Released on April 10, the twelve-track album explores love, loss, isolation and personal struggle through a broad mix of alternative rock, metal and post-hardcore influences, with “Terrified” standing among its most vulnerable moments. The song was written by Bradley Amick and Addie Nicole, with Bradley also handling its production.

“Terrified” confronts the isolation and internal battle that can accompany suicidal thoughts, self-harm and substance use. Rather than presenting those experiences from a distance, the song comes from a deeply personal place for Bradley, who describes writing it during the lowest and darkest period of his life, after nearly losing everything, including himself. The track transforms that experience into an open message for anyone facing similar struggles, reminding them that they are not alone and that seeking help can be the beginning of finding a way forward.

Musically, HALOCENE build the song around the contrast between vulnerability and intensity, with Bradley and Addie sharing the vocal performance. The emotional weight of the lyrics is reinforced by the song's dark atmosphere, while the arrangement allows the vocals to remain at the centre of the experience. “Terrified” ultimately moves beyond despair toward a message of survival, self-acceptance and the possibility of recovery.

The track sits within When Love Dies alongside songs including “Death Do Us Part,” “Suffer” featuring Oceans In Silhouette, “Euphoria” featuring Fame On Fire and “Bite My Tongue” featuring Holding Absence. With the new video, HALOCENE bring renewed attention to one of the album’s most personal songs, turning a painful chapter into a message of connection: you are loved, you are needed, and you do not have to face the darkness alone.
