“Next week Landshapes have released the video for their new single ‘Insomniacs Club’. From the band on director Ian Pons Jewell: ‘We watched his short horror film, 1/4 inch, and thought it went incredibly well with the song, synching almost perfectly even before Ian took it in for a re-edit. We wanted to have a video that fitted with the jittery pace of Insomaniacs Club, and also something haunting that would render the watcher unable to sleep, this gruesome nightmare that follows a girl collecting sounds is perfect, the edit condensing the story and following the change in atmosphere through the song, they were made for each other!’.”
The Deep Red Sky released their latest single ‘Kids’ – a cover of the MGMT favourite – on October 7th. Later this month, they play Hootananny Inverness (20), Bar Bloc Glasgow (23), The Electric Circus Edinburgh (24), Lomax Liverpool (25), Retro Bar Manchester (27).
