Brooklyn band The So So Glos have unveiled the video to A.D.D Life, the explosive cut taken from their latest album Kamikaze. Check it out below.
The band are a tight power chord driven punk rockers with elements of Ramones, The The Stooges, and The Clash running through their veins.
The visceral drumming, fat bass lines, valve-cranked guitar,and hook-laden choruses may be retrospective combination. But thematically, they're very much in touch with contemporary affairs.
They spark debate about how people's behaviour has changed a result of being hooked on information technology.
"I need a life that I can plug In a wall", "My mind goes to work like it's tuck in Reverse", and "Too much is never enough" are some of the choice lines from the song that tacke the topic. Let's hope they can inspire more bands to be outspoken about our transitioning society.Singer Alex Levine understands , however, that it's quite an obvious topic: “I’m a too-much-information-generation cliché,” he sings.
But with a new mental illness spawned called Internet Addiction Disorder it's still an interesting topic to be challenging. You only have to look around the train, bus, or room you're in to see how many people are scrolling on their phones compared to those who aren't. It's a massive behavioural change.
The video shows black and white films being cut in with pacey footage of the band on stage, strutting around the streets and in the studio. It's low budget but all the better for it as it's got an unique identity of its own.
The band released A.D.D. Life in the UK on 9 September.
