Thoughtcrimes has released the video below for their new single “Natural Imprudence“. Billy Rymer (ex-The Dillinger Escape Plan), who drums for the band, offered the following on the song:
“The initial inspiration came about with a conversation Russ and I had about HM-2 distortion. He then brought his Evil Ned pedal to my place and we made a demo. This is probably the fastest we have written and released a track. We are all excited to share something that is still fresh even to us.”
Tom Flynn handled the directorial duties for the video. Rick Pepa, the band’s vocalist, offered the following regarding working with Flynn:
“Interestingly, Billy had came up with a visual concept and title that had all these unintended parallels to what I was writing before we showed each other our cards so to speak. It was exciting to have an almost accidental continuity bringing the new material together. Lyrically, it takes a tongue-in-cheek approach to processing the anxieties of an uncertain future and society by calling it out and challenging it.”
