Today CItizen is showcasing their new single and video for “Hyper Trophy”, by far the bands most ambitious video to date. Directed by guitarist Mason Mercer, the accompanying video finds the band in the middle of an undefined pursuit.

“On Calling The Dogs it truly is the most excited and energized the band has been in a really long time,” guitarist Nick Hamm says. “This album makes me feel like I’m 19 again — it’s like therapy or something. It sent a lightning bolt through everybody that worked on it. We’re ready to go.”

 

Across 11 tracks, Calling The Dogs explores a range of moods, styles and themes with each song as memorable as the last. The album’s first single, “If You’re Lonely,” is the kind of upbeat singalong anthem fans should expect to belt out at shows for years to come. Tracks like “Hyper Trophy” and “Can’t Take It Slow” show that Citizen can still put out unforgettable melodies over dance-worthy rhythms, while others (like “When I Let You Down”) lean more into timeless classics bordering on garage rock. As a whole, it’s as intense and energetic of an experience as the band has ever released.

Calling The Dogs pre-orders are still available, and tickets for the bands upcoming dates across the US, UK and Europe can be found here.
