The track is the latest to be lifted from his new album, 'Sunshine Rock', which is due out on February 8, with North American, European and UK shows set to follow soon after.
The song finds Mould lyrically ricocheting back and forth between cynicism and optimism, the former mirrored musically by a stripped back accompaniment to his deadpan vocals, while the other is greeted with a full-blown band backing.
The former frontman of Hüsker Dü and Sugar said:
"The video follows the protagonist who is trying to find solace and anonymity in an increasingly corrupt world filled with paranoia and misinformation. We see him being questioned about his real intent, apprehended by a fictitious yet familiar looking border security, then interrogated about the life he left behind.
Shot in Berlin, the video switches into dream sequences filled with chases, captures, and escapes. There’s a mosh pit of half-naked dancers, an accordionist in a church square, and the climax being a wild pursuit through the surrealistic ruins of a decommissioned CIA listening station.”
