Directed by Kevin Custer, director of the band's seven-part "Making of American Slang" series that documented the process of recording the new album, the video for the title track features live performances from the group as well as striking black-and-white images of New York City, one of the band's many muses for their critically-acclaimed new album. The video for ‘American Slang’ is the first to emerge from the band's new full-length.
American Slang was released globally the week of June 14 on SideOneDummy Records. Produced by Ted Hutt (who produced the band's acclaimed second album, THE '59 SOUND), American Slang heralds a dramatic leap forward for the New Jersey-based band. Tracks such as ‘Bring It On,’ ‘Orphans’ and ‘Stay Lucky’ bristle and burn with the spirit of soul and the artistic adventurousness and confidence of a band that has come into its own and truly found its own voice.
What do you make of it? We LOVE it.
