It looks like a religious building where they look into the sky. I think there's a sense of alienation and loss of freedom in how they look into the blue, like it's been taken by dictatorship and brexit and on the last picture how they focus in the dark clouds covering the sun.

I think the video is brilliant, I like more with every viewing. I can’t wait to see what else they come up with for other tracks on the album.

I really hope we get a nice blu-ray with all the Kieran Evans videos on one day. They could make it region-free and call it the International Blu-ray.

Some of their other videos should also be made available for international audiences. Canadians get to see most of them, but there are a few not available here.

Well, yeah, ‘they’ who are in charge of such ludicrous decisions such as to geo-lock music videos certainly should stop being so silly. I doubt the band themselves have anything to do with it. The title must feel quite ironic to those who can’t access it (at least without using a VPN etc).

The song is great and the video for it is fantastic. Great use of colour, light, shape and emotion. Well done!

Crying shame there were no b-sides, or even a remix.

Symptomatic of the age in which we live, I suppose.

Sean said (on Twitter) we should have a new single in 2-3 weeks.

No word on b-sides?

Sorry 'exclusive downloads' or whatever they're called these days.

Since the singles chart has become impenetrable, the first batch of b-sides get dumped at the end of disc 2 of the deluxe album instead.

Reminds me of Lifeblood - you know, The Soulmates and Antarctic were meant to be B-sides for the third single that never was? Just a thought.
