They were going to give it to Cher but she said no.

This is actually one of my favorite music videos. The meaning behind the song is very compassionate. And I think the randomness of people moving with the minimalistic clothing/background make it intentially hard to understand it on the outside looking in much like people do when they "try to help". It all basically highlights that breaking down one's problems doesn't help the way they feel, people just want to be heard not diagnosed. This really amazing I'm so glad they're still making music.

I've been watching and listening thinking maybe it's about mental health, but actually that the song is from the perspective of the emotions. Listening again I prefer your perspective though! I feel like the bits with very decisive answers are gut feelings (stay or go, Go!) And the emotions are saying they have to be heard, you can't understand them, but they absolutely exist regardless of whether you know "why", and so they are just Known. The emotions are trying to help, and comfort, and help us with self awareness, but we don't always let them in.

Strong Catch and Release vibes. Was so happy when I saw this in my sub feed.

It's been a pleasure growing as a person along side SSPU's music. Back when I first discovered Carnivas (and Pikul) there was something that really resonated with me. Swoon sealed the deal; it was so great I've been using Swoon as a handle since. Neck of the Woods and Better Nature have been on repeat with the rest of their catalogue as they were released. And now.. I welcome this new chapter wholeheartedly

Interpretation At first I thought it was just a stylised weird choreographed video but after many watches I’ve realised It actually syncs surprisingly well with the lyrical themes. The lyrics primarily concern themselves with the idea of disconnection in modern social connections. Perhaps Alluding to social media- continuing the theme from their earlier song “Connection” (from Better Nature). Social media has kinda given us this view into other people’s lives while making us feel more alone: “Feeling like you’re on your own - oh no” “Is it greener on the other side? - No” “will it help you sleep at night? -it won’t” “It doesn’t matter why we’re known, we’re just known” Ie. everyone is known to everyone but nobody truly connects with one and other. The people start out opening their eyes and then try to connect with one and other, poking each other or attempting to embrace. There’s also others on their own trying to move freely and finding themselves stuck, moving rigidly at the start in an uncomfortable way. ^ This movement is quite metaphoric of how we move through life, trying to form meaningful connections when technology creates uncomfortable barriers. Some stare at their own hands, as if trying to make sense of themselves. Towards the end with the lyrics “And if it all goes right, you’ll see in our eyes” We see people starting to transcend the disconnection: with smiles, fun dances and embraces made between people. This is a nice kind of watershed moment. “Your on your own, and in your eyes - you finally see we’ve all gone blind!” “Have we all gone blind?” Then as this bridge ends we see some people blink as if they have realised some truth or reset their approach to how to connect ... while others lapse or remain disconnect from one and other, seemingly entranced. As the song ends Brian puts his hand to his chest, a sort of way to say he hopes we take to heart the message.

Excellent tune. Love the clapping, reverb, and the strings, it all adds a phenomenal frenetic depth. Some moments echo No Cars Go by Arcade Fire. Man I wish they'd broadened their sounds/styles in an SSPU manner.

Never fails, always love their "new" sound, every album.

my depression is definitely gone since I heard this song

[Verse 1] You hear us come and go (We know) You wonder if we're not alone (We're alone) You think about us all the time (Don't) Because it doesn't matter why we're known We're just known [Verse 2] You wanna read our minds (We know) Is it better on the other side (No) Will it help you sleep at night (It won't) And it doesn't matter why we're known We're just known [Verse 3] Should you stay or go (Go) Feeling like you're on you own (Oh no) Will we ever leave you alone (No) And it doesn't matter why we're known We're just known If it all goes right, you'll see in our eyes We've finally made it out alive Will you wait for a sign It's time to have some peace of mind (Wait) You're on you own and in your eyes You finally see we've all gone blind Have we all gone blind It doesn't matter why we're known We're just known

Who thinks it matters the reason that they're known? Known in what way? You said he's singing evil? You think it's like the voice of doubt in someone's mind or a demon or something? Saying shit to fuck with people "you're all alone" "life has no meaning" "nothing matters". Reading through the lyrics again maybe he's talking to someone that cares about him, that just wants the best for him, but he keeps pretty much telling to go fuck themselves, and the person he's taking to sees that he and everyone one else like him have doomed themselves or made themselves suffer or something.

Great Tune and totally Silversun Pickups style. I'm lovin it.

I'm always a bit scared to hear new music by bands I love. Having been on both sides (fan/creator) I know it's an incredibly difficult slope. BUT GODDAMN Y'ALL JUST KEEP KILLING IT. This song does something reviving to my body like all your music has done. Like breathing fresh air into dead lungs, fresh blood into a dying heart, fresh sounds into ringing ears. You're ever changing, ever evolving in sound, never in stasis but somehow always pulsing forward and you keep that up. It's truly amazing, really stunning. I can't wait to take the motorbike out for a night ride with this as the soundtrack/inspiration. Totally f'ing pre-ordering this right now.

Really like the silence drop on the beat at the end of each measure. Also, blecch: Facial recognition for us all: we're known. But many of us don't profit from it. Rock on!

Amazing song.
