The platinum-selling, chart-topping and record-setting quartet hailing from Ontario, Canadaconsistently offer up hard-hitting, honest andhypnotic anthems. Ahead of the bands performance at this years Download Festival comes the video for the new single ‘Human Race’.
Check it out here:
The Mark Pellington directed video may be a little NSFW due to the images of an incapacitated naked woman lying on her side on a table attached to a breathing tube. But the video’s focus more about the ideas of human connection with very distinctive looking actors whose faces seem to tell a story.
It’s a thought-provoking clip from a director who has a history with such subject matter, whether it be Pearl Jam’s ‘Jeremy’, ‘Alice in Chains’ ‘Rooster’ or Foo Fighters ‘Best of You’ that populate his video resume.
“We had played the night before and were headed to the next city as the sun was coming up in the Midwest. We were looking out the window at just peaceful countryside and just kinda soaking it all in and then, just like that, the bus took an exit and we ended up in downtown morning rush hour gridlock traffic … just watching out the bus window as people yelled at each other, ran red lights, gave each other the finger, and were just being generally shy to one another, while they were in some massive rush to get nowhere at 7:30AM. It was like we were on the outside looking in, and I remember somebody said, ‘Where the hell is everybody going and why are they such in a rush? Don’t you just get sick of running this race? The human race?’ The song was born in that moment. We started writing it right away” – Comments Neil Sanderson
On their new album ‘Human’ the band–MATT WALST(lead vocals), BARRY STOCK (lead guitar), BRAD WALST (bass), and NEIL SANDERSON (drums, percussion, keyboards, programming)–re-teamed with producer Gavin Brown, who did the same honors for their platinum-selling 2003 self-titled debut album.
