Cloud Nothings: No Future/No Past

“No Future/No Past,” the new single from Cloud Nothings’ upcoming new album, Attack On Memory, has been circulating online alongside a new video produced by Urban Outfitters. Much as I’m not one to promote the criminally opportunistic tendencies of Urban Outfitters, as the organization has been known to acquire, mimic and plagiarize independent artists on more than a few occasions, the video for Cloud Nothings’ new track is compelling to watch, the sole actor hovering over a selection of ground, flooring or pavement before he is ultimately pulled into the sky. His face is scarily emotive and those sections of the song where emotion is heightened, volume is upped and attention is demanded seem enhanced by his performance.

Attack On Memory is available to stream before release, which is tomorrow, January 24th. All info, links and concert dates come courtesy of Life Or Death PR & Management.

Hopefully, if there’s any money to be made off this video, Urban Outfitters can start hiring designers that do more than just rip-off other more talented and visionary artists in the field.  Just a thought.
