Frontman Simon Kerr told CMJ. ” We take our music pretty seriously, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously.” The video was then immediately picked up by The Nerdist who said, “It is a disastrous melange of bruise inducing bad luck and misanthropic children, and it should make you feel better about your day unless part of you caught on fire or was unceremoniously amputated. All the while we are treated to The Wans brand of flailing garage rock that sounds uncannily like early aughts White Stripes.”
The Wans’ recent video “Never Win” off of their new album ‘He Said, She Said last week. “The video really shows our sense of humor.”
