BITERS frontman Tuk Smith comments: “Somewhere between the homeless people begging for change in front of million dollar condos and the rush of the post-modern ironic subculture movement lies the inspiration for this track.  I’ve seen a lot of people come and go but I still play rock ‘n’ roll.  Sometimes, even in my own city, I feel like a stranger in a strange land.”

Filmed with director Video Rahim – who has worked with BITERS on a number of music videos before, including the recent grindhouse-themed video for “1975” – the video for “The City Ain’t the Same” offers a visual throwback to classic rock TV variety shows, showcasing the band’s electrifying live energy.

“For the video I wanted to recapture the vibe of performances I saw on shows like The Old Grey Whistle Test,” adds Tuk, “Like Marc Bolan playing on stage with guest musicians and it was just like a party”.

“The City Ain’t the Same” was originally included as a bonus track on the iTunes version of the band’s new album, ‘Electric Blood’, with the updated version of the single due to release on all major platforms next Friday, June 24th.
