Boston Manor release new music video for ‘Plasticine Dreams’

BOSTON MANOR have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Plasticine Dreams, is taken from the band’s upcoming new album, GLUE, which is scheduled to be released in May this year.

Speaking of the track and its accompanying music video, vocalist Henry Cox says, Plasticine Dreams is about the throw away culture of media. How art is treated as “content”; one minute something is plastered everywhere you look and the next it’s faded into obscurity. I also feel like because it’s so easy to go viral now it also encourages people to make ‘content’ rather than art. We’re getting so much information constantly thrown at us that nothing is really absorbed or appreciated, you just click next when it’s finished.”

“We wanted something really different for this video. The song kind of has its own thing going on within the context of the whole album & we’d always wanted to do an animated video because it allows for a new level of artistic expression, not confined to what we can create in “reality”. We were able to sneak a bunch of easter eggs into the video – nods to loads of BM history & also the themes of GLUE. We’re really happy with how it came out. A lot of work went into making it. We invite people to find all the easter eggs & references!”
