When a miracle happens and we actually get what we want, we can\u2019t help but wonder: When is it all going to go wrong? Good, old-fashioned existentialism. Pair that with some guitar that\u2019s as silky as a gigolo\u2019s compliment, and you have &#8220;Doomsday.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How do you hope your fans feel when they hear it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hope is a dangerous thing for a band like Sunday (1994) to have.

We\u2019re a band, after all\u2014not an acting troupe. So we just point a Super-8 camera in each other\u2019s faces until something looks good. Pepper in some slow motion twirling and you\u2019re on to a winner.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are some challenges you dealt with while creating the music video?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We shoot everything on film so there\u2019s not a lot of room for error, but that\u2019s also the charm of it. Orsen Welles said, &#8220;The enemy of art is the absence of limitations.&#8221; Which sounds terribly clever, so we\u2019ll leave it there.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p><img alt=\"\" class=\"rm-shortcode lazyload\" data-rm-shortcode-id=\"d5d37018aaa5ca0f513b5cda14f6cedd\" data-rm-shortcode-name=\"rebelmouse-image\" id=\"6446e\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.isshicare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/img-77.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong>What are you working on and excited to share with fans next?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re very thrilled about our upcoming debut headline tour in April and May.
