Watch: Modern English Unveil Music Video For "Sweet Revenge"

British post-punk/new wave legends Modern English have unveiled the video for their new single "Sweet Revenge."

The song is part of our current playlist and is taken from their upcoming new album 'Take Me To The Trees', their first release with the original lineup since 1986’s Stop Start, set to arrive on February 24 via Kartel Music Group. Pre-order your copy here.

“’Sweet Revenge’, vocalist Robbie Grey says, “Is a song of modern desperation and lost love. It’s a return for Modern English to our early angular guitar work and in your face lyrics. The bass moves and won’t be pinned down as it weaves .The space age keyboards fly around like stars. I’m looking for Sweet Revenge. The cry of someone looking to blame the world.”

The video was directed by Gary Mortensen-Barker. Watch it below (via PasteMagazine).
