See: Frankie Cosmos reveal new video for Being Alive, plus UK tour dates


Frankie Cosmos

Taken from their forthcoming Vessel album, due out on Sub Pop on March 30th, Frankie Cosmos have revealed a new video for their track Being Alive, this rather lovely indie/punk track that races off during its chorus and runs out of breath and gets a little bit of stitch in the verses. It’s both happy and melancholy, and its harmonized ending is magical.

The accomapnying video, directed by Daniel Martin, captures a mix of live performance and behind the scenes footage from the band’s 2016 & 2017 European tours. But, touring isn’t just endless massage trains in the van on your way to the next city, there’s much more. Whilst performing as tiny little marionettes, the band get abducted by an Irish Space Dog and get transported aboard his kennel space-ship. As you do.
