With its new EP, “E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.,” Strange Talk has not only changed up its sound, but its music video release strategy.

Sonically, the EP is more EDM than Strange Talk’s earlier synthpop work. This transformation started with the writing of “Something’s bout to Change,” the first single off “E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.” When it came time start thinking about music videos, the band got creative and decided to release one video for each of the EP’s five songs, with each video acting as an installment in a pentalogy.

The “E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.” music video pentalogy visually parallels Strange Talk’s sonic transformation, starting with the video for “Something’s bout to Change,” moving on to the videos for “When It Feels so Good” (feat. Bertie Blackman), “Painted in Gold,” and “Jive,” respectively, and ending with the video for “So in Love.”

What to know: “Where Do You Run” is The Score’s major label debut. It was self-produced by the band.

Standouts:

• “Oh My Love”

The Score, which we featured as an unsigned pick in July 2012, has signed a major label deal with Republic Records.

The deal comes after the band’s song “Oh My Love” was used by UK supermarket chain ASDA in an ad campaign celebrating its 50th anniversary.

“Oh My Love” instantly resonated with audiences; within days of the campaign’s launch, the song charted on Shazam (peaking at #2 on the “United Kingdom Top 100” chart), Spotify (peaking at #1 on the “United Kingdom Viral 50” chart), and iTunes (peaking at #4 on the “United Kingdom Pop” chart).

Suffice to say, Republic has a ton of momentum to work with, and we expect it will only be a matter of time until “Oh My Love” blows up worldwide like it has in the UK.

Keep an ear out for “Oh My Love” on stateside radio, and check out the ASDA commercial that helped break The Score below!
