MUSIC VIDEO: Scranton’s Motionless In White debut ‘Loud (Fuck It)’ and new album cover
As the countdown to the release of their new album, “Graveyard Shift,” on May 5 continues, Scranton metal band Motionless In White has released another new song, “Loud (Fuck It),” with a black-and-white music video directed by Jeremy Danger and Travis Shinn.

The music video for the track, which continues their tradition of stepping outside their comfort zone and experimenting with new sounds, can be seen above, while the lyrics are posted below.
MIW will join Los Angeles alternative metal band In This Moment on their Half God, Half Devil Tour this spring, which stops at the Sherman Theater in Stroudsburg on Saturday, April 22. Tickets are on sale now.
Motionless In White – “Loud (Fuck It)” lyrics:
You gotta be loud / You gotta be rude / so the world can hear you
You gotta be crass / You gotta be cold / it’s everything we know
Turn it up turn it up now
Another day, a double shot of hate
Drink it up like gasoline
Underpaid, you graduate, to build somebody else’s dream
With a noose as a tie… do you fantasize of a much different life?
The fix for who they want you to be / directly streamed to your TV
And when they turn their backs on you…
You gotta be loud / You gotta be rude / so the world can hear you
You gotta be crass / You gotta be cold / it’s everything we know
Turn it up turn it up now
Loud / Rude / When nobody hears you
You gotta stand up / You gotta commit
Say “Fuck It”, make the best of it
A broken home you’re trying to mend
You’ve got one day left to pay the rent
We’re not sure, but we believe in the lie… that it’ll all be fine, when we die
It’s so easy to grant the mirror power to control what you want to erase
Don’t become another victim / “Put a smile on that face”
You gotta be loud / You gotta be rude / so the world can hear you
You gotta be crass / You gotta be cold / it’s everything we know
Turn it up turn it up now
Loud / Rude / When nobody hears you
You gotta stand up / You gotta commit
Say “Fuck It”, make the best of it
The money’s in the treatment, baby, not in the cure
So they fuel your pain with fear and shame and then hand you a brochure
The money’s in the treatment, baby, not in the cure
So they build you up to watch you fall and then beg for an encore
What are you waiting for?
