Last year, Long Island post-hardcore veterans Glassjaw, only intermittently active in recent years, released Material Control, their first full album in 15 years. This summer, they’re heading out on tour with fellow New York-area post-hardcore geezers Quicksand. If you feel like seeing some guys in their 30s getting back into the pit for the first time in a long time, these shows will be a great place to do it. And now Glassjaw have also come out with a video for “Shira,” the turbulent first single from Material Control.

The “Shira” video is all mythic-looking slow-motion black and white, and it consists entirely of scenes of live shows, from the band playing to the line of stone-faced dudes outside. Hardcore shows are inherently cinematic affairs, and the video takes full advantage of that, getting all the brutality with slow-motion clarity. Below, watch the video and check out the dates for the Quicksand/Glassjaw tour.
