American indie punk artist, Sincere Engineer, have shared their new single and music video for “Tourniquet”. The song captures the eternal struggle of piercing the line of apathy and motivation with the soaring moment where melancholy bursts into hopeful optimism. The DIY video also perfectly captured the tone of the song by using surreal elements to tell a story that isn’t always able to be told in words.

“Nolan and I went to high school together! I’ve been following him for a bit and always wanted to work with him on an animation video one day. So it felt right to do it now, since getting together physically to make music videos isn’t ideal right now anyway.”
