Vancouver indie rock/noise pop/alt band Jo Passed have revealed the video for their new single "MDM".
The song is taken from the band's forthcoming debut album 'Their Prime', set to arrive on May 25 through Sub Pop Records. Pre-order your copy here.
The nicest thing anyone has ever – ever – said to Jo Hirabayashi, frontman of Jo Passed, is that his band's debut album sounds like “fucked-up Beatles”.
Their Prime does sound like fucked-up Beatles. It sounds like Lennon and McCartney discovered Can and Neu!, and maybe a little Sonic Youth and XTC along the way. It demonstrates that timeless knack for dreamy melodies – chord progressions that sound like they were created in a land far, far away. Lyrically, however, it’s imbued with a philosophical longing for answers to questions that have resurfaced for the first time since the explosion of counterculture in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
The video was directed by Eleanor Petry. Watch it below.
