At The Drive-In has released a music video for “Hostage Stamps,” the third single from the new album "in • ter a • li • a," which will be released on May 5th. A Spring / Summer tour will coincide (see below for complete list).
About the song, frontman Cedric Bixler-Zavala says “It's like walking through the hallway in some war-torn ghetto and reading the writing on the wall. When you hear things like, ‘Raise your nothing pole,’ I don’t think anyone will know what that is right away, but when you look it up, it’s this curse. We are going to be victorious. Here’s the fucking head on the stake in front of our army. We’re coming back. It’s reading the writing on the wall. It’s going and keeping your ear to the ground and listening to the heartbeat of young people.”
