Manchester Orchestra has finally given us a first bite of their 3rd album with the video of the title track Simple Math. The single illustrates an obvious change in the bands style opting for a seemingly more serious concept album and swapping their usual guitars and raw grit for strings and a polished sound. Slow building instrumentals matched with Andy Hull's vocals ranging from a powerful wail to a fragile croon shows the band hasn't lost their ability to pull you in and wrench your heart out in the same way that Mean Everything To Nothing and I'm Like A Virgin Losing a Child did.
The album Simple Math is due out this May, but for now we have the single's beautifully dark video featuring a man who looks a lot like Andy Hull's future self.
