Here to kick you out of your holiday slumber, scrappy Vancouver rock unit Glad Rags are back with a video for their new track "Population 101."

The song was recorded with Vancouver studio hero Jesse Gander at Rain City Recorders in 2017, marking the first official glimpse of what the band have in store for their first release since their 2016 debut album SMILE.

As you'll witness, the video for "Population 101" amps up the far-out vibes, with the Glad Rags crew getting more than a little crazy in front of a green screen. This includes an array of beach scenes, picnics, vintage grocery ads and a huge mess at the end.

The video was shot and edited by KC Wei as part of the "Karaoke Video Maker Free Store" project during her 2017 residency at UNIT/PITT Projects.

Glad Rags will be heading back into the studio this spring to record an EP with Jordan Koop at Noise Floor Studios, but for now, you can get your first glimpse of the new "Population 101" video below.
