We've got a soft spot for the Brooklyn indie-rock band, The Drums.With their wiry guitars and angular melodies, they make fantastic, literate pop rock with some influence from Brit titans such as Joy Division and The Smiths.
Earlier this year, we streamed a live show from The Drums, and now we've got their video for the track "Me And The Moon," taken from their self-titled album, released earlier this year.
Directed by SURROUND and The Drums themselves, the clip reminds of idiosyncratic New Wave clips from folks such as Fine Young Cannibals. For the most part, the video stays out of the way of the song, with a few atmospheric settings and some nice camera work.
Really, the most noticeable thing about "Me And The Moon" is how it shows off The Drums' unique, schoolboy hipster fashion sensibility.
