New Video: THIS WILL DESTROY YOUR EARS - I Want To Write A Good Song
You'll be forgiven for not knowing too much about French noise-rock trio THIS WILL DESTROY YOUR EARS. Based in the South western region of Hossegor, the band have won acclaim and fans throughout Europe without ever quite getting the attention they deserve in the UK. Their 2022 album Everybody Knows Mickey was released on Brutalist Records in the UK, and in a time where Idles, Fontaines D.C and Gilla Band get the plaudits in this sonic space, it's an album that should have landed with much more on an impact.
The band plan on releasing a new album in 2025 with details teased to be in the forseeable future and have decided to revisit a track from their previous effort. They have shared a live video session for their single 'I Want To Write A Good Song'; a tongue-in-cheek yet brutal assault on the senses that works as a tribute to inspiration. Conceptually, the track is built around a series of song titles that they would love to have written throughout time: PIXIES 'Debaser', Talking Heads 'Psycho Killer, IDLES 'Colossus' and many more.
Filmed by Loula Productions (who have already worked with the band for their 'Coffin For Two' video) in Seignosse in the middle of winter. The video sees the band simulating an audition
organised by a bar to find a house band. Finding themselves in front of a meagre audience who look like they'd rather be anywhere else, the trio storm their way through the track as if the very existence of their band depends upon it.
The band play two upcoming shows in France, but expect a full tour hitting the UK later in the year as new music hits, and ultimately, lays waste to your ears.
