Science fiction is so dope.

Do you ever wish your life was like being a third string character in a made for TV science fiction movie from the mid-70s? Life would be pretty exciting. Every day you would wake up, and some paper mache death machine would be on the loose, killing cities and towns brutally and for some reason always off screen. Treasure Fleet is a band from Chicago that delivers music to which you can mosh, chill, and surf. Their new album The Sun Machine is also a soundtrack to their film The Sun Machine. This video for "Settle Your Mind" gives you a little taste of what to expect from the extended film which the band self-produced and directed. The video feels like waking up in the middle of the night and turning on your TV to a random channel, where an older science fiction movie you've never seen or heard of captures you with its insane plot. Shady characters, eyepatches, hommade spaceship sets, it's got the works. The track is super surfy yet poppy, bringing to mind bands like Man or Astroman, and other acts in that vein.

Check out their new video below, and you can find the soundtrack right here.
