Metronomy Heads For Space In New Video

Joseph Mount and his Metronomy bandmates will release Love Letters, the group's followup to 2011's Mercury Prize-nominated The English Riviera, on March 11 via Because/Elektra Records (March 10 in the UK).

As a precursor to that release, Metronomy released the breakup lament "I'm Aquarius" several weeks ago and now have a video for it as well, with a lonely Mount hurtling towards space to a planet dominated by what seems to be willowy Empire of the Sun acolytes and shoop-dooping Sphynx cats.

Watch the video, directed by Edouard Salier via The Creators Project, below.

Metronomy will also play Music Hall of Williamsburg on February 5, the first announced US date on the band's itinerary.  An extensive tour through the UK and Europe has already been set for March and April 2014.
