Toronto noise rock/psych four-piece Gloin have unveiled the video for their new single “Dark Moto“.
The song features on their debut album ‘We Found This‘, out today, October 21 via boutique Montreal label Mothland. Buy your copy here.
The video was directed by Sara May, who shares:
My vision for how to shoot and edit this video was inspired by the unique character of Gloin’s music. A seemingly straightforward concept that slowly reveals deep complexities and sinister undertones. Always drawing you in and leaving you wanting more. The band seems to create and perform music in an unseen dystopia and I tried to capture a small part of that in the “Dark Moto” video.
Watch/listen below.
Drawing inspiration from Sonic Youth’s nonchalant verve and Lightning Bolt’s aggressive sonic constructs, Gloin’s new opus, We Found This, is flush with patented pop melodies and beautifully noisy arrangements, supported by a distorted rhythm section that offers plenty of urgency, but also soothing grooves. Lyrically, the long-player is as subversive as it is inspiring, challenging the routine, embracing the occult, celebrating individuality.
