Watch: Screensaver Unveil Music Video For "Clean Current"


Aussie post punk/synth wave band screensaver have unveiled the video their latest single "Clean Current".

The song is part of our current playlist and came out as double A-side single 'Clean Current​/​Repeats', earlier this month through Upset The Rhythm. Grab it here.

Clean Current is a burst of high-energy: nervy guitars and groovy base underpinned with krautrock drums and cosmic synth noise, overlayed with delay heavy vocals. Repeats is the flipside of the coin, a moody post-punk stomper, led by gritty saw tooth synth, chorus-soaked guitar, textural percussion and soaring vocals. Lyrically Clean Current spits out retorts aimed at the engulfing nature of anxiety whilst Repeats critiques the repetition of modern life, languishing human existence.

Clean Current nods it’s head to likes of Snapper and 80s Flying Nun bands whilst Repeats owes it origins more to the progenitors of goth-rock.
