Adelaide’s Down And Out has dropped a new rager, Paper Skin, and ahead of its official release tomorrow, Kill Your Stereo premieres the music video today.
Produced and mixed by Stevie Knight (Stand Atlantic, Yours Truly, RedHook) and mastered by Grant Berry of Fader Mastering, Down And Out come out swinging and firing from all cylinders.
This is a song that can be added to your emo/pop-punk playlists alongside Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco, and Yours Truly.
Paper Skin opens with the fiery vocals of Luke Ganeo, before creating an eclectic soundscape that fuses distinctive guitars with fluctuating synth leads.
The band says about the new single, "The song is about being in a situationship that falls apart due to a lack of clear communication and intentions.
"It's easy for things to become messy quickly in a situation like that unless everybody is on the same page, and this situation became messy pretty quickly. Unfortunately, if nobody has the insight or guts to call it off early enough it can devolve into an unstable and toxic dynamic, which is exactly what happened."

Paper Skin arrives with a stunning music video filmed, directed, and edited by Colin Jeffs (Yours Truly, Windwaker, Diamond Construct). Shot at Mobile Barber Shop Depot and Hijinx Hotel in Brisbane, the clip is an electrifying depiction of the song's multilayered components.
The band explains, "The locations were chosen by Colin based on the mood he got when listening to the song, he felt it was a bit dark but also had lighthearted sections which is why the clip jumps between the dark, somewhat gothic aesthetic to the bright colours."
Down And Out will join pop-punk outfit SoSo on tour next week in Melbourne, Sydney and Wollongong. Check out the Paper Skin music video, premiering exclusively on Kill Your Stereo and the band’s upcoming tour dates below.
