Great American Canyon Band’s new video should be an Icelandic tourism ad

Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste
“Only You Remain,” the latest track from Baltimore’s Great American Canyon Band, is already a pretty cathartic song. Simple, repeated melodies, soaring harmonies, and an expansive folk-pop sonic palette makes the song sound like it was written and recorded atop a mountain, instantly evoking a mood of open air and gigantic vistas. Lyrically, it’s a pure and heartfelt ode to intimacy, a fundamental declaration of commitment in the face of struggle. But when it’s paired to this video, shot in Iceland by the clip’s DP and editor Shannon Palmer—and premiering exclusively at The A.V. Club—it becomes an almost triumphant celebration of finding someplace (or someone) all your own.
