The future is a scary place, and nobody knows it more than new band The Harrisons. The Harrisons have seen the future and, by God, are they ever hell-bent on showing it to us in the video to their forthcoming single Dear Constable.

The Harrison's version of Sheffield in 2026 is a grim place, where police in riot gear roam around the streets beating up anyone who dares read books. It's roughly the same future as heckerspray will create when we're made King, except we'd only batter people reading The Da Vinci Code. Anyway, the future police's reign of terror seems to stretch to attacking generic post-punk indie bands in stupid hats because, by the end of Dear Constable, The Harrisons have been set upon and thrown into a Clockwork Orange-style rehabilitation centre, where they'll presumably have their eyes pinned open and get forced to watch a succession of violent images until they stop copying Bloc Party so much.
