Last Friday, US Chart-topping eight-piece Rock 'n' Roll collective, The Revivalists, released their brand-new studio album, 'Pour It Out Into The Night', via Concord Records, and today's Video Of The Day, taken from the album, the propulsive, frenetic instrumentation of 'Don't Look Back', pulls sonic inspiration from front man David Shaw's early Punk-Rock days and reflects the urgency of the song’s message of perseverance and moving forward.
