Rise Against shared their new video for Nowhere Generation single “Talking To Ourselves”—a track about falling to complacency and feeling as though no one is listening—that features evolving and cryptic transmissions for fans to discover via QR codes, and are encouraged to follow over the next few weeks. “The intention behind the video was to yet again shed light on us as a society and to expand on the feeling that we have progressively lost our humanity. In our video, the QR codes represent little windows to the world outside of our bubbles, only to be dismissed and swiped onto the next event,” explains director Ryan Valdez. “It feels so bleak. Heartbreaking headlines are so disposable and just another hashtag buried in the news of celebrity gossip and trending dances. As we watch and Tim sings ‘Are we talking to ourselves,’ I hope it reminds us to be human, listen, speak up and do better.”

Rise Against, who are currently on the road through April 22nd, playing the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto tonight, will head back out on tour this summer for a U.S. headline run that includes shows at The Forum in Los Angeles (7/19) and The Rooftop at Pier 17 in NYC (8/09), with support from The Used and Senses Fail.
