Customer Service\u2019s newest music video is a hilarious drag-fueled accompaniment to an emotional track full of longing and a tinge of hope, and it feels like a balance only they can strike.<\/p>\n
The Halifax-based emo band released their single \u201cNever Meant To\u201d<\/a> on Sept. 10 in the lead-up to their third EP, If You\u2019re Here, You Must Be Fine<\/em><\/a>. The song itself features mid-west riffs, an energetic chorus contrasting low-key verses, and lyrics about flicking through old memories and dredging up ancient feelings. It\u2019s another fantastic showing from the band, and it\u2019s only elevated by its music video.<\/p>\n A mid-2000s throwback. Four typical nerds sit around, playing Wii Sports, wondering how they can change themselves to pick up girls at a slumber party. They copy Fred Durst\u2019s hand gestures. They learn to jump while shredding a guitar. They even wear period-appropriate clothing, including a bandana-hat combo that screams 2006.<\/p>\n The girls they\u2019re trying to impress? Well, it\u2019s the band in drag\u2014an idea that came about due to, in part, a time crunch. The band toured all throughout August, and the filming was done in the few days they could spend at home with their video production friends at MOOSECANFLY<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n
