Montreal indie rock trio Plants and Animals have unleashed the video for their new single "House on Fire".
The song is taken from their fifth studio album 'The Jungle', set to be released on October 23 Via Secret City Records. Pre-order your copy here.
“House on Fire”, is an upbeat and energetic anthem that seemed to be aligning perfectly with the surreal summer the world will experience this year. It came from Warren’s haunting feeling that a friend who was taking too many sleeping pills might forget to turn his stove off."
The band explains : “We started working on this a couple of years ago. Warren was afraid for a friend’s health. He thought he was self-medicating too much and not taking care of himself. He couldn’t let go of this image of an overworked dude swallowing too many sleeping pills and falling asleep with the stove on. So it began as the place next door, sometime before Greta Thunberg turned the expression into a rallying cry, where Earth is the house and the people are sleeping. It’s terrifying, and on the whole we’re not unlike this friend, are we?”
