Manchester’s Mandy, Indiana, formerly Gary, Indiana, are scheduled to release their debut EP … on November 19th via the Fire Talk label.

To coincide with the news, the band have also unveiled their new video ‘Bottle Episode’. Directed by Max McLachlan, the manic visuals flow hand in hand with the in your face tune, which rings with a sense of urgency. From rotating clips, to flashing imagery layered with analog style footage of singer Valentine Caulfield, the manic video has an almost DIY aesthetic to it that is definitely punchy like the single itself.

Touching on the video, director Max McLachlan stated:

“When I heard ‘Bottle Episode’ for the first time, the driving drum beat immediately spawned dizzying, restless visuals. After talking with the band, and seeing their previous DIY approach to visuals, we decided to create visuals that matched the track’s chaotic energy by physically putting a camera through torment.”

Mandy, Indiana added:

“Max’s ideas really intrigued us. He was much more interested in camera techniques than in any kind of narrative or typical music video ideas. The shoot was all very improvised, with extras fighting over a camera, launching it in the air, smashing it on the ground, attaching it to a drill. A key element of the track is movement and finding interesting ways for the camera to move was an idea we thought was worth exploring. The camera becomes as much the subject of the video as the people and locations.”
