American emo powerhouses Jimmy Eat World released their brand new album ‘Surviving.’ In celebration of the album release, the band shared the new song ‘555,’ along with the video, which can be seen below.
About the song, frontman Jim Adkins shared: “Speaking of the inspiration behind the new music video, Jim has shared “I’ve always liked the Rick Springfield video for ‘Bop ‘Till You Drop.’ A reptilian overlord managing his minions gets overthrown by his workforce. He’s kind of trying to keep them in line, but one guy breaks into song and mass rebellion ensues. From the overlord’s perspective, that day was a pretty bad day. I always thought that was funny. So ‘555’ sees me cast as a galactic evil master, overseeing an army of cloned species doing my bidding – this is the only life they know, joining me in song in this post-apocalyptic dystopia.”
