Calgary’s icy post-punks, Sunglaciers, are inching closer and closer to the release of their anticipated Subterranea LP, and have a music video for the darkened and minimalist “Out of my Skull.” Subterranea is out March 25 via Mothland. Until then, check out “Out of my Skull” below.
“Out of my Skull’ is dark but it’s lively. I shot in black and white to lend a bit of a classic, noir vibe to the video, which also helped bring out some of my innate 90s influence,” says band member and director, Evan Resnik.
“The lyrics loosely reference Miles Davis and a few moments from his life: his hiatus from 1975-80, a shooting in 1969, being assaulted by a cop outside Birdland in 1959. I watched a lot of music documentaries in early 2020 when we began writing this record. Miles was a mysterious and brooding artist, and that initial inspiration helped me get into that mindset during the songwriting and throughout the video production. The video is intimate but detached, with close-up faces in contrasting, unreal environments. We’re in your face, but we’re not really there.”
