In the clip, directed by band member Joseph Mount, the musicians are tiny versions of themselves, performing the song while standing on a stage made of their own cassette tape (which reads \u201cMetronomy 4 Eva\u201d). The track itself is a shimmery indie rock number, with a soaring chorus and moments of layered synth ambiance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis music video is a pop promo in the grand tradition of pop promos: End of school on a Friday afternoon, mysterious little people that live in a cassette tape, concerned parents and special FX,\u201d Mount wrote on the band\u2019s website. \u201cThe song and video are both about growing up. I\u2019ve absolutely loved taking the opportunity to direct our own music videos. I have quite strong opinions on what music videos are for in 2019 and how they should be presented and this has been a chance for me to put my money where my mouth is. The most impressive thing I\u2019ve realized is how much of a group effort creating a music video is. I\u2019ve always known it, but this time I\u2019ve obviously worked much closer with the various characters, involved in every department. So, thank you to them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Metronomy\u2019s last album, <em>Summer 08<\/em>, was released 2016.
