Collapsing Scenery (Mickey Madden’s side project) drop new single + video

For those unfamiliar with Collapsing Scenery, it is a Los Angeles based indie musical project composed of multi-instrumentalist Don Devore and Maroon 5 bass guitarist Mickey Madden, who goes by the alias Reggie Debris. The duo just released a brand new song and music video, directed by Devore, on Friday, May 19th.

“Straight World Problems” is a song about “awful frequency with which new regimes and new systems mimic the worst qualities of those they replace,” according to Debris (Madden). “It’s painful for anyone fundamentally anti-establishment and instinctively critical of structural power to run up against the rocks of the reality of building new systems or, even worse, attempting to exist outside them altogether. It’s an anti-utopian song, in that sense, but I hope not a cynical one. I’m a huge believer in managing expectations, especially when it comes to politics. Dreaming of an unattainable, ideal future only leads to misery and disengagement when that future fails to materialize. That disappointment opens the field for other, usually opposing utopians to ply their vision; and as that cycle continues, it more often than not leads to escalating violence.”

You can stream “Straight World Problems” on Apple Music and Spotify.
