Watch: Green River Ordinance -- "On Your Own"

Yesterday, Fort Worth's Green River Ordinance released the above music video for "On Your Own," the second single off the band's major label debut, Out Of My Hands. It's a gorgeous video, I'll give them that. But, man, if the song doesn't sound like Third Eye Blind or some other...

Yesterday, Fort Worth's Green River Ordinance released the above music video for "On Your Own," the second single off the band's major label debut, Out Of My Hands. It's a gorgeous video, I'll give them that. But, man, if the song doesn't sound like Third Eye Blind or some other '90s bands. Kind of like the rest of the album--it's not terrible, just not particularly enjoyable. And it's utterly unoffensive.

But, hey, the band's lead single, "Come On," already found the band pop up on the VH1 Top 20 Countdown, so I guess this is just the band's attempt at a follow-up. Having a pretty video like this helps, no doubt.
