Children Collide Release Bizarre New Clip and Announce Supports

There has been plenty happening in Children Collide's world of late; with a new album released, their drummer leaving, their frontman bailing to New York and an award for a previous clip. Today they announce that they have a new clip, as well as letting everyone know who will be supporting them on their forthcoming jaunt around the nation.

Brisbane two-piece Dune Rats are touring like crazy at the moment and have been announced as the main support for the Melbourne rockers on this forthcoming tour. Their new single Fuck It is pretty righteous and their live show is getting very good indeed so they're a worthy band up to the task. Adelaide's relative newcomers Bad Dreems, who are said to call to mind the music of a number of Flying Nun bands, will be opening the shows.

The new clip – for Sphere Of Influence, the shortest song on the record – was made by frontman Johnny Mackay on his phone as her shaved and brushed his teeth over a couple of weeks. The results are bizarre but interesting, check it out below.
