AWOLNATION, has released the echo laden, electric new single “Candy Pop” out today. The single is accompanied by a cinematic music video – the final in a trilogy of videos directed by Eliot Charof.
The videos for the previously released singles “Freaking Me Out” and “We Are All Insane” prelude the finale in “Candy Pop.” The trilogy of videos take inspiration from classic film and paranoid fiction, revealing a dreamlike world that feels both futuristic and bygone.
“It’s a story about escaping from never-ending technological advancements and constant connectivity and scrutiny… The adventure of a lifetime can come from ‘tuning out,’” says AWOLNATION architect Aaron Bruno.
“The intention with “Candy Pop” was to create a song that epitomizes the seductive nature of pop music and pop culture, while pointing out the absurdity of it all at once,” says Bruno on the new song.
“Candy Pop” can be found on the upcoming EP of the same name to be released November 10.
