Synopsis

Moving Units perform "Between Us & Them" in a raw, high-energy live setting. The band plays amid harsh lighting, quick cuts, and an unruly atmosphere that emphasizes physical movement as much as the song's dance-punk rhythm. Rather than following a narrative, the video captures the group's confrontational stage presence, with Blake Miller's vocals and the band's tightly wound bass, guitar, and drum interplay driving the footage. The result is an abrasive performance document rooted in the early-2000s San Diego and Los Angeles underground scene.

Factoids & Trivia

  • "Between Us & Them" first appeared on Moving Units' self-titled EP, initially released by Three One G in 2002. The EP was later reissued on CD in 2003 and the song was included on the band's 2004 debut album, "Dangerous Dreams."
  • The performance footage is associated with "This Is Circumstantial Evidence," a DVD documenting several bands connected to the Three One G scene. Moving Units' section includes "Melodrama," "Birds of Prey," and "Between Us and Them."
  • The DVD was presented as a deliberately raw document of live performance, with visuals described as dirty, energetic, and modeled on older concert films rather than polished mainstream music-video production.
  • The song became particularly familiar to skateboard-video audiences after appearing in Foundation Skateboards' 2004 video "That's Life," where it accompanies Leo Romero's opening part.
  • "Between Us & Them" was also licensed for the 2005 racing video game "Juiced," giving the track exposure beyond the band's indie and skateboarding audiences.
  • The song's compact, bass-driven arrangement reflects the band's early dance-punk formula: angular guitars, restless drumming, and a groove strong enough to work equally well in a club, at a concert, or in a skate video.
