Nottingham band Do Nothing share "Moving Target"
"Moving Target" is the new track taken from their debut album Snake Sideways.
Commenting on "Moving Target" and its accompanying video shot on handheld camera, vocalist Chris Bailey says: “I’d say that this one distils some of the album’s more gloomy themes into a nice little song about being tired and run down. It’s also sort of about feeling small in a big world, and wondering how you could possibly relate to it. For the video, I thought it'd be fun to strap a GoPro to myself for a month and see whether the footage could be made into something. I felt weird walking around with it, but I actually quite like watching it back now as a little time capsule thing. During the editing I definitely noticed that smiley positive moments actually made for the best footage, which made me feel nice and uncynical.”
To coincide with Snake Sideways, Do Nothing are also paying homage to legendary mobile game Snake, with their version featuring a specially commissioned 8-Bit audio version of their previous single, "Amoeba". Play the game here.
Do Nothing are also embarking on their biggest headline shows to date, including London’s KOKO on 6 October.
