The official music video for Brick + Mortar's single "Staying Gold"

In case you’re not sure which of the two buckets you fall into, watch Brick + Mortar’s new video “Staying Gold.” The New Jersey duo—consisting of Brandon Asraf (bass, vocals) and John Tacon (drums, electric samples, vocals)—pull heavily on the heartstrings through their depiction of a sickly youth in a hospital bed, sitting anxiously as monitors beep and nurses flutter. In the spirit of punk rock insurgence, a friend helps bail him out, leading him to a world where the once-sickly boy is doing all the things kids should do—breaking into private pools for rowdy skateboarding, running through tree leaden suburbs aimlessly, drinking beer and flirting with girls.
