The Murder Capital have shared a new song called Ethel.
Dark, brooding and cinematic, it's the third single from the Dublin band's sophomore LP, 'Gigi's Recovery', due out on January 20 via Human Season. The band commented:
"The song Ethel is a picture of a crossroads, really, asking you what you want from life. Whether you want to continue down a path of chaos, or make a change in your course. It’s showing you what is possible when you make the decisions that bring a sort of cradled warmth into your future. The idea of Ethel is that you can have what you truly desire if you put to rest those short-lived fixes that never bring you any real happiness."
Head below to view the song's accompanying video, directed by Maxim Kelly, who said:
"Initially I thought Ethel should be the main character and do the dance at the end, and I always had this image from this French film called My American Uncle. Where it’s like a little girl standing up at a table. I originally had that image in my head for a rap video, but it didn’t really make sense to the song, I wanted this to feel more like surreal so then as I started finding more imagery, it kind of transpired that maybe the maid was the more interesting character."
The John Congleton-produced record will also include the earlier singles A Thousand Lives and Only Good Things. The quintet will support it with UK and European tour dates in February. Tickets are on sale.
