Washington D.C. area band American Television have shared two new videos from their upcoming debut full-length, Watch It Burn, which releases on Wiretap Records next month.

Get an early taste by watching "Standing Still" below.

"Similar to 'Glory Days' by Bruce Springsteen, or even 'Glory Days' by Pkew Pkew Pkew, 'Standing Still' is a song about being stuck in the past and reliving accomplishments from your youth rather than focusing on your present and future," the band says. "The world is moving a mile a minute these days, probably headed for complete disaster, so being focused on that big game from high school or trivial accomplishments from your college days seems so short sighted. Forget the glory days, we need you today."

Watch It Burn releases on Jan. 24, 2020.
