Chief State’s New ‘Out For Me’ Video Shows The Healing Power Of A Dog & Punk Rock

At the point when it seems like everybody – including the individual glancing back at you from the mirror – is out for you, take an example from Chief State’s new video about moving past your ‘old ways’ – and the delight of possessing a canine.

You ought to embrace a canine. That seems, by all accounts, to be the message at the core of “Out For Me,” The new music video from Vancouver, BC’s Chief State. The video, for the most up to date cut from their hotly anticipated debut full-length, sees an anonymous underground rock hair stylist on a bad streak. There are no clients. He has no companions. His whole world is blue. Enter: the canine.

Abruptly, life is vastly improved for our stylist companion. Business is getting. He’s getting outside air on strolls. He’s spending his evenings joyfully perusing with his dog… and facilitating meals with his companions. As this scene unfurls, Chief State releases (play on words expected!) an impact of emotional seasoned pop troublemaker about needing to continue on from your state throughout everyday life. “I’m waiting for more promising times/But around evening time I lay alert/Forever caught in my former ways/I disappear,” howls frontman Fraser Simpson. “I wish that I could feel something/So I tear me appendage from appendage/I imagine that my most awful adversary/Has got it out for me.”

“Out For Me” is one of the ten tracks on Waiting For Your Colors, the introduction from this Canadian troublemaker bunch (out in July by means of Mutant League Records.) Formed after Fraser Simpson left his home in the UK for Japan in 2014, which eventually saw him migrate to North America, Chief State came to fruition after Fraser set a Craigslist promotion about beginning a band. After Fraser associated with Nik Pang, Chloe Kavanagh, Justin Pham, and Joseph Soderholm, the gathering started a five-year time of hustling, playing, songwriting, and working hard. The summit is Waiting For Your Colors.

“There’s most certainly an approaching old enough subject on the new collection,” Fraser shared prior about their forthcoming delivery. “We’re asking ourselves: What am I hoping to escape life, out of being in a band? What delights would I like to seek after and where would I like to put my energy pushing ahead? We’ve arrived at the understanding that we as a whole need to pressure less on the things we have zero control over and appreciate a greater amount of what we have, what we have some control over, and the actual excursion.”

Their process sees them visiting all through the mid year with Calling All Captains, Settle Your Scores, Wilmette, and Brooklane. See beneath for dates.
