Morning Parade Premiered "Us And Ourselves"

Morning Parade released a new video for their first proper single "Us & Ourselves," from the UK indie rock outfit's upcoming début LP is due out June 19. What do you get when you meld together the ebb and flow of 90's dance anthems with the crunch and tingle of indie rock? You get the soaring and catchy sounds from this five piece band and it is another fine example of Britain's love for indie rock.
"Us & Ourselves," is a song filled with great drumming accompanied with the riffs and synths that have gotten them the fan-base. With added backing vocals the song gets more depth. The lyrics are sung with such heart and soul, and the song proves the hype right down to the final beat. It's one of those songs that dominates with its ability to gradually build in sound and persistence, creating some killer musical progressions along the way.
"Try your best to feel something," the lead vocals Steve Sparrow sings on "Us And Ourselves," which shouldn't be too hard while you're listening to his band's epic new anthem. Sparrow sings with a raw edge that separates him from both bands, while the group's diverse sound and it should win them plenty of international ears. Don't be surprised if you feel like you're soaring by the 3 minute mark, but no need to worry - they'll bring you back to solid ground by song's end, leaving you with a soft landing and warm memories.
The dark new video is an expressive pairing of a song about loss with dark footage of wandering people with psychic power and pyrotechnics that makes you wonder if you've ever felt this way "running around the streets where you grew up." The clip is as intense as the music, full of sci-fi special effects as the band plays in another shot, a motley crew of villagers wanders down a country road to follow a mysterious light, which sucks up a car, sets a cabin on fire and blasts our newfound friends into space. They wind up chilling with the constellations, which is probably better than spontaneously combusting.
