Rise Against have released a video for their new single Talking To Ourselves, taken from their latest album Nowhere Generation.
The interactive video allows fans to discover cryptic transmission via the QR codes throughout with the experience continuing for viewers in the forthcoming weeks. Discussing the video, director Ryan Valdez says: “The intention behind the video was to yet again shed light on us as a society and to expand on the feeling that we have progressively lost our humanity. In our video, the QR codes represent little windows to the world outside of our bubbles, only to be dismissed and swiped onto the next event. It feels so bleak. Heartbreaking headlines are so disposable and just another hashtag buried in the news of celebrity gossip and trending dances. As we watch and Tim sings ‘Are we talking to ourselves,’ I hope it reminds us to be human, listen, speak up and do better.”
