"Control" is the second radio single from Grammy Award nominated New Orleans electro-rock band Mutemath's self titled debut album. The single was to be released to radio on January 15, 2008. A digital single was expected to follow sometime in February 2008.[1] The song was written by Paul Meany, Adam LaClave, and Darren King and was originally released on Reset EP in 2004 and charted well[vague] on Radio & Records CCR charts before their merger with Billboard. The song also won a Dove Award in 2005 for Best Modern Rock Song of the Year.[2] despite the fact the band were never intended to be marketed in the CCM genre.[citation needed]
Music video
The music video directed by Israel Anthem was filmed in Nashville, TN on January 12, 2008 and January 19, 2008. The Craigslist ad for extras stated that it is a "highly stylized concept" that requires at least 300 extras. As of yet the video has not been released due to copyright issues in regards to a similar, previously released clip from a European group. However, the music video was included on the DVD of the fall Armistice tour, filmed at the Tabernacle in Atlanta, GA.[3][4]
