NYC Post-Punk Outfit London Plane Skewer the Cult of Obedience in Video for “NATION NATION”

London Plane, a New York City six-piece, released “NATION NATION,” a post-punk track produced by Carlos Dengler of Interpol. The song explores authoritarian psychology from the perspective of an obedient follower, featuring frantic guitars and feverish vocals. Frontman David Mosey describes the track as absurd and somewhat demented, suggesting the subject is intoxicated and willing to sacrifice himself for a leader. The accompanying video, directed by Zane Rizvi-Riemer and Max Burbey, depicts two men conducting an authoritarian recruitment operation through door-to-door canvassing, using Soviet-style expressionist imagery and pharmaceutical references. The video combines dystopian elements from Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World and George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four, illustrating how ordinary citizens become accomplices in their own subjugation. “NATION NATION” appears on London Plane’s third album, Villains Heroes Ghosts, expected in early 2027 via Declared Goods.
