    "comment": "Featuring Caroline Polachek on vocals.  In the accompanying music video directed by Harley Weir, two cranes sing to each other. The band’s Jack Barnett sings from the perspective of one, while guest vocalist Polachek represents the other. \n\nGeorge Barnett shares, \"'Industrial Love Song' is a duet between two cranes on a building site. Caroline sings the part of one crane, I sing the other; they can’t touch (their movements are controlled by the operator), but when the sun rises they hope that their shadows will cross. I like how the title George came up with misdirects expectations – it’s not that kind of industrial.\n\n\"It’s hard to attach a time period to this song. It’s progressive music made with instruments that have been around for hundreds of years.\"\n\nJack Barnett continues, \"As we exit the mechanical age, you realise how much we have in common with our machines, how human they are. Suddenly it didn’t feel so absurd to write a love song from their perspective.\"",
