Polar Bear Club release new video and on tour

Polar Bear Club's new video for "Screams in Caves", off of their landmark album Clash Battle Guilt Pride, is available for your viewing pleasure now at www.WarpedTour.com.

The video was shot in Spring/Summer of 2012 by director Rob Soucy and features a beautifully shot, abstract storyline along with charming and charismatic live performance footage of the band as well.

PBC vocalist Jimmy Stadt commented, "Working on this video was a lot of fun.We shot the performance footage at this really cool, tiny club in Brooklyn that was just beautiful. You only really see the stage in the video but the whole venue was beautiful."

Director Rob Soucy also chimed in, saying "The band approached me with the idea of having a very story-driven music video so after a few play on words - we came up with this idea. We wanted to make a music video that felt like a throwback to the hay day of music videos. Those classic 90's music videos you used to watch when you would get ready for school as a kid or when you stayed up super late at night and left MTV on hours after 'The Ten Spot'. The band was so easy to collaborate with. Not to mention just swell guys."

Stadt continued, "…working with Rob was great. He's a consummate professional and still a dude who gets what we're going for. Very relaxed yet thorough and all around, it was a great process."

Polar Bear Club will spend June, July and the beginning of August out on the Vans Warped Tour alongside bands like Rise Against, New Found Glory, Taking Back Sunday, and countless others while canvassing North America. Following their Warped Tour run, Polar Bear Club will head overseas for festival appearances and shows in Germany and the UK. The band is still touring hard on 2011's Clash Battle Guilt Pride, which was recently deemed "punk rock that’s contagious as it is sincere" by Blare Magazine. Polar Bear Club has been touring incessantly since its release, most recently across the US on the Glamour Kills tour with The Wonder Years.
