From their upcoming debut full length In Your Room comes the video for "Defeatist" from Australian indie outfit Cameras.

[Watch] Canon Blue - "Bows & Arrows" (Video)
Above is the debut video for "Bows & Arrows" from Canon Blue's Rumsprina. The video was directed by David Ogle and as lead songwriter/composer for the band Daniel James writes, "This video is meant to be a surreal theater play of the subconscious. A rite of passage from one stage of life to the next. There is the spirit that leads and ultimately suffers. There are the otherworldly murky creatures serving as jungian stage hands, witnesses as dark shadows lingering on the edge of the mind. And there is the tension between what we know we must leave behind in order to be what we know we must become."
In just a few weeks the band will be hitting the road for the duration of October and November. Have a peek after the jump for more info.
Rumsprina is available now courtesy of Temporary Residence Limited.
