Rock/metal guitarist, producer, mixer, and longtime industry veteran, Steve Gordon MIA, has officially released the music video for his breakout single “Broken”, featuring powerhouse vocalist Ray West of Spread Eagle. The track has already made major noise at radio currently at #22 on Metal Contraband Radio Charts – and the new visual brings the song’s emotional intensity, modern heaviness, and cinematic atmosphere to life.
“Broken” marks the second collaboration between Gordon and West, following their acclaimed single “We Go To War,” that climbed to #18 on the Metal Charts and continues the sonic blueprint Gordon has spent years crafting: classic metal emotion delivered with hard hitting modern production.
The new video is the most fully realized chapter of the Steve Gordon MIA visual universe so far. Combining gritty cinematics, emotional narrative, and Gordon’s signature heavy aesthetic, the “Broken” video plunges viewers into the darker themes behind the song—pain, recovery, addiction, rebirth, survival and the razor-thin line between destruction and redemption. Ray West’s soaring performance is on fire, backed by Gordon’s relentless guitar work and massive mix, delivering a modern metal anthem—but unmistakably stamped with Gordon’s veteran sonic identity.
