MODERN DAY ESCAPE: 'The Syndicate' Lyric Video Released

March 29, 2012

The lyric video for "The Syndicate", a brand new song from the West Coast hard rock outfit MODERN DAY ESCAPE, can be seen below. The track comes off the group's sophomore album, "Under The Gun", which was released earlier this week via Standby Records.

According to MODERN DAY ESCAPE vocalist James Vegas, "The Syndicate" is dedicated to the band's legion of die-hard devotees. "'The Syndicate' is about us and our amazing fans," he said. "They're so supportive and badass. They will do anything to come to our shows, and we will do anything for them."

MODERN DAY ESCAPE relied on the never-ending support of the "Syndicate" to provide the visuals for this one-of-a-kind lyric video, and the response was overwhelming.
