Of Mice & Men Share Video For Real

Thursday, 25 August 2016 Written by Laura Johnson

Of Mice & Men have shared a video for Real.

The song is cut from their new album, 'Cold World', which is due to arrive on September 9 through Rise Records and follow up 'Restoring Force', which came out in 2014, and their first live album, 'Live at Brixton', which arrived in May this year.

Discussing the video with Rolling Stone, who premiered it, vocalist Austin Carlile said:

"We shot it in Portland, Oregon, during a day off from tour. We asked fans to submit footage holding up poster boards that explain what makes them feel real. The images that pop up mention everything from music to foster care activism to the Marfan's Community to St. Jude's hospital. And some people wrote stuff like, 'Reading,' 'My friends,' 'Family.' We even had some fans in the studio while we were recording, just to include them more in the process.

People always try to change things and take away what makes you who you are, and we wanted to write a song saying that you can be who you no matter what other people think. It doesn't matter if you fit in or if other people accept what you want to do. You have to stay real to yourself, and in the end that's all that matters."

The Orange County five-piece will support the record with an autumn UK tour. They will make stops in Birmingham, Manchester, Nottingham, Newcastle, Glasgow, London and Cardiff between September 30 and October 9. Tickets are on sale now.
