Fear Of Men - “America” (Official Video)

Fear Of Men put out a great but kind of slept-on release with Loom last year and, if you never got around to checking them out for whatever reason, now is as good a time as any. In fact, their shambling and spry pop may be a better seasonal fit in winter than it was when it was released in the spring. “America” is a simple video made up of footage from the band’s U.S. tour supporting the Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, but it fits particularly well here given the song’s title and sentiment. The video goes all over, including stops in our nation’s capital and in front of the Twin Peaks sign (damn good coffee!), and is a charming look inside the Brighton band’s daily tour life.
