Weyes Blood unveils new track 'Movies'

With her eagerly-awaited new album set to arrive in a matter of weeks, Weyes Blood aka Natalie Mering has now unveiled the latest cut to be lifted from her forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Movies' follows on from the previously shared tracks 'Everyday', 'Andromeda', 'Something to Believe' and 'Wild Time' in previewing her fourth LP 'Titanic Rising', which is set to be released on the 5th April via Sub Pop Records.

Speaking about the new video for the cut, she added, “We are enamored with Movies. Our generation is the most cinematically saturated of all time. Videotapes, DVD's, streaming... Spielberg...all of it has thrust us into an endless loop of consumption. They provide formative experiences as children, standing larger than life before our fragile adolescent minds. I wanted to take a look into the emotionally manipulative powers of movies - how have movies succeeded in telling the myths of our time? How have they failed (miserably)? What is the consequent effect on a society of beings looking for themselves in the myths on the screen? It's safe to say that they have failed us, but I can't help it...I love Movies."
