Alt-pop outfit MisterWives are scheduled to release their forthcoming album Nosebleeds on July 14th. The news also coincides with the announcement of the band joining Bishop Briggs’ North American tour beginning September 8th.
MisterWives have also unveiled a new video for their latest single ‘Ultraviolet’. Shot in the Santa Monica Mountains, there are clips of singer Mandy Lee walking around with multiple arrows in her back which is also metaphoric for the years of pain carrying. The song’s production is scaled back, enough to really take in the heartfelt words of Lee.
Touching on the track Mandy Lee said:
“Ultraviolet is a delicate and intimate reflection of struggling with comparison, self deprecation, lack of embodiment and the awareness of wanting to break those lifelong unhealthy coping mechanisms that no longer serve who you want to be. Much like the flowers, we all carry so much within ourselves that isn’t presented on the surface and I hope this song is a reminder to be gentle and compassionate with ourselves and each other.”
