Vivian Girls<\/a> surprised fans with a reunion in July<\/a>; now the band follows the good news with their latest track, \u201cSomething to Do,\u201d the second single off their comeback album, Memory.<\/em><\/p>\n

The new song sees the Brooklyn-turned-L.A. rock trio meld classic surf-pop melodies with brackish, interjecting punk riffs. In their video, the Vivians Girls each race from the loneliest corners of Los Angeles, to jam in an abandoned skate park. Shot in 16mm film, their present-day scenes are spliced with flashbacks \u2014 romantic beach scenes starring the lead singer-guitarist, Cassie Ramone, and leather-clad actor Alexander Koch.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m looking for something to do\/But the world offers me nothing without you,\u201d sings an ever-so-anguished Ramone; in writing the song, she cited the 1962 Burt Bacharach and Hal David song, \u201cI Just Don\u2019t Know What to Do,\u201d as her inspiration.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m such a big Bacharach fan,\u201d said Ramone in an interview with Rolling Stone<\/em><\/a>. But I also love grit and punk simplicity, so when I write, I try to merge those two ideals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Memory<\/em>, which also features first single \u201cSick<\/a>,\u201d is out September 20th on Polyvinyl Records and available to pre-order now<\/a>. The trio kicks off their reunion tour October 4th at the Regent in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n
