Looking for a DIY punch-in-the-gut experience (who isn't)? Shut yourself into your room, close the curtains, turn up your computer real bright, and cue up the Children Collide film clip for 'Loveless'. Initially, your eyebrows may be knitted with confusion, as you're confronted with the square sight of the band's frontman, Johnny Mackay, done up in clown face and staring straight back at you. The song itself wafts with a bare yearning that knocks around your head long after it finishes. We won't ruin it for you, but suffice to say by the end you won't quite be sure what just happened for the past five or so minutes.
Children Collide are now giving the song its first live airing, with a 12-date tour across the country. They'll be joined on the Loveless tour by bands DZ Deathrays & Damn Terran, making it a triple threat assault of the senses. Get amongst it – after all, we can't shut ourselves in our rooms all the time.
