Single Mothers Release New Video For Metropolis (Cultivated Wasteland)

Canadian punks Single Mothers have released a new video for their track Metropolis (Cultivated Wasteland).

Metropolis (Cultivated Wasteland) is the band's first new music since last year's Through A Wall album.

"Metropolis was recorded just before Through A Wall at Lincoln County Social Club in Toronto Ontario," says vocalist Drew Thomson. "It’s a collaboration between Peter Landi and myself. I had recently moved apartments and my old landlord had sold the building we lived in and kicked everyone out. There was a real estate boom and we were all seemingly in the middle of it.

"Peter came to me with the song, and once we were in the studio the lyrics came right away. I was just venting. A few years before I was living in my van. Sometimes it takes all the energy you have just to keep the lights on."

Single Mothers have three UK shows lined up, including a set at this year's 2000Trees festival.
