Watch: The Polyphonic Spree Premiere "Let Them Be" Music Video

Indie psych pop rock supergroup The Polyphonic Spree have shared the video for "Let Them Be", another cut from their recently released fourth studio album Yes, It's True, out via Good Records.

Just a few days ago, the band revealed the video for the album's first single "You Don't Know Me" and now their sharing the clip for "Let them Be". Both tracks are part of our current playlist.

About the song, band founder Tim DeLaughter says: "Let Them Be is a song I created from looking at images of Ernest Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea while working on some beats via Garage Band a few days before the recording session to finish the new album. I basically wrote the music and lyrics for it right there and saved most of it for the final recording, including the vocals."

The video was directed by Ben Rowe, who explains: "This is a narrative of conscious devolution. Our hero moves against the grain to return to origin rather than participate in civilized institutions. I would say that it's a video in defense of taking a day and staying in bed. Sometimes."
