INDIE POP ROCKERS
NUKE THE SOUP
DEBUT MUSIC VIDEO FOR
THEIR INTROSPECTIVE LOVE
TUNE, ‘BLIND’
DIRECTED BY SKIZZ CYZYK

 
The ocean-inspired pop/rock band Nuke the Soup, is unveiling the official music video for the reflective love song “Blind” from their debut album, Make Waves Not War on Meteor Records. “Blind delves into the reality of true love by realistically expressing one man’s tendency to forget why he loved, only to grasp glimpses of it now and again,” describes Surfrock.org.

The video was shot in the band’s hometown of Baltimore, Maryland and directed by Skizz Cyzyk, who holds an impressive resume of work including music videos for other notable acts such as Beach House, Tippy Canoe & The Paddlemen, Young Fresh Fellows, and The Moaners. Cyzyk shot the video slow motion, creating a dreamlike allusion to the footage. He’s also currently co-directing a feature-length documentary about the band Alice Donut.

Nuke the Soup made their debut at Delaware’s Dewey Beach Music Conference in 2006. The band’s first single “Filled with Dread” was one of the most added radio tracks on FMQB’s Triple A chart its first week out. The eleven track album features a host of top flight East Coast musicians (keyboardist Brian Simms, bassist Mike Mennell, guitarist Rennie Grant) as well as drum legend Chester Thompson, who has played with Weather Report, Frank Zappa and on and off with Genesis for more than 30 years.

The band is also set to play an official party at South By Southwest 2010 on Friday, March 19 at Kenichi, bringing their catchy, sing-out-loud pop/rock tunes to one of Austin’s best sushi spots.
