She Drew The Gun have released a video for their current single Something For The Pain, directed by Johnny Gregory in Liverpool.
The song is ‘about a conversation with a refugee set in the future’, according to Louisa Roach. “At the point where the refugee crisis has become so big and automation so ubiquitous, that what is left of the first world finally make the decision to become a people rather than profit based society, one that treats everybody as citizens giving them their basic needs,” she continues.
“In the video we played with the idea of that future exchange using ‘Jenny Holzer’ style text art to create a narrative and dancers to represent the conversation.”
The track is taken from She Drew The Gun’s 2018 album Revolution Of Mind, which will be on tour in the UK from February next year.
