The video for the song was directed by Luke Bather, he shared this about it: “Our initial starting point was, predictably, the New German Cinema movement. However, when we discussed the themes of the song in more depth, the video evolved into its own beast. Sex, death, repressed desire, and good old-fashioned Catholic Guilt all loom large in the video through a series of performance vignettes inspired by everything from the films of Rainer Werner Fassbinder through to the paintings of Francis Bacon and everything in between. Adding to this, we have the spectre of Carson haunting the video as a ghostly analogue broadcast interspersed with archival footage of Berlin in the 1970s; an inescapable reminder of the past and a nod to the original New German Cinema movement.”

Jessica Weiss shared this about it: “The video sets the emotional tone for the record, suspended between eroticism and nightmare. It draws on cropped mirror framing – a favourite device of Douglas Sirk used to explore themes of emotional and physical entrapment and characters’ inner psychological conflicts – moments of dissociation, and the television as a symbol of alienation, inspired by my perennial inspiration, RW Fassbinder.”

14. Irish Goodbye (ft. Kae Tempest)

The video was directed by Thomas James who shared this about it: “For me, this needed to be punk, absurd, abrasive and wild. An ugly reflection of the world we find ourselves in; utter fucking chaos. We talked around the idea of a ‘carnival of distraction’ – and for me, this meant as many ideas as would squeeze into the 3 minutes, that embody the 2+2=5 hell-scape we seem to be surrounded by.

A whirlwind of Irish mythology, of satire, of anger. A vehicle for what the boys have been through, but likewise, for what everyone is witnessing. It’s not often you get to work with a band who have a genuine fire, and a selfless interest in trying to help people. And that for all of us involved, was important.

The video became a nightmarish fuck you to the powers that be, with a wry smile and a lubed up prop selection.”

KNEECAP shared this about the album: “They tried to stop us by branding Kneecap ‘terrorists’, with cancellations, with statements from the Prime Minister himself.

We had all the motivation we needed…this isn’t a swift reaction, but a considered response to those that tried to silence us. And failed.

Made with Dan Carey, a producer we are honored to have worked with. It’s a more sinister sound…because these are sinister times. But also defiant and triumphant.

Inspired by, and proudly named ‘Fenian’, who were warriors in Irish folklore, and later a derogatory term for the Irish.

Now we’re using it to name everyone speaking truth to power.

After 800 years of colonisation, they thought the Irish language would die, it didn’t. Thanks to Muintir na Gaeltachta, and all the Gaels who refused to let their culture and language be destroyed.

And Kneecap is much the same…we haven’t gone away.

The Paddies are back.”

Blackwater Holylight – “Fade”

Blackwater Holylight have shared the third single, “Fade”, off their upcoming album “Not Here Not Gone” out January 30th via Suicide Squeeze Records.

Sunny Faris shared this about the song: “‘Fade’ is a song that is a true stamp in time. It was written during a time of deep confusion and loneliness and is an ode to the big and deep waves of emotion we all experience when our relationships come to an end, they shift or they express something unexpected within it. The sample at the end of this song was taken in our neighborhood in Los Angeles and is an ode to our neighbors and this city that we love.”

Cut Worms – “Windows On The World”

5. Windows on the World
6. Walk in an Absent Mind

Max Clarke shared this about the Jeff Tweedy produced album: “The stories in these songs are equal parts innocence and experience dealing with the ecstatic moments of being freshly enamored with the world as well as the isolation and seclusion that can come after. On view are the unseen inner sanctums of quiet daily life the private worlds that people inhabit, where they don’t or can’t let anyone else in. It is not a uniquely American phenomenon, but it does seem prevalent here, rooted in the mythos of rugged individualism and the idea that each person must be strong enough to make it on their own or die.”
