There’s “Something Beautiful” About Extra Medium Pony’s New Video

Published

on

Cleveland, Ohio’s Extra Medium Pony are soon to return with more of their dirty indie rock in the form of the upcoming album, Traffic. Set for a September 14th release, the fourteen-track record is today led by the single “Something Beautiful,” a video for which can be seen below.

Commenting on the new song, band member Richard Spitalsky says, that it’s about “searching every fiber and molecule for something true can really show the sadness and isolation between each heartbeat. The lyrics are extremely descriptive, while thunderstorms of drums ride on cellos and violins, and the rest of the band peels guttural, distorted guitars like sunburnt skin.” Regarding the video, he elaborates, “I feel like my life is becoming a cartoon… I seem to only identify with cartoon humor–maybe as a safety mechanism to protect me from the harshness and cruel reality that is our current political state.”

More singles, videos, and news to come from the band in the near future. Until then, get stoked on the new album, the first since the group released meaninglessness in 2016.
