London indie rock band Sports Team have unveiled the video for their new single "The Drop"
The song is taken from their sophomore album 'GULP!', which will be out on September 22 via Island Records. Pre-order your copy here.
Speaking about the song, the band say, “It’s questioning a constant striving for achievement, never really enjoying the moments and ‘Katie dying waiting for the right time to retire’. Today the internet told me they’ve found ‘pits on the moon where humans could comfortably live and work’, brilliant.”
Working with director, filmmaker and architect A.T. Mann for the accompanying video, Mann adds, “When I stepped through the sonic journey of The Drop I dreamed of a poet caught in his own urban web of city lights, stuck there as the mind is being lost, knowing there is only one way out – letting it all go. Letting all the nonsense boundaries drop, taking the one leap into the unknown like the soul of the acrobat about to fly – or fall – stepping along the highwire of the one important quest - Creation. This reminded me of a beatnik poem by Laurence Ferenghetti called ‘Constantly Risking Absurdity’.”
