False Advertising release new music video for ‘Don’t Ask Me’

FALSE ADVERTISING have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Don’t Ask Me, is the brand new single from the Manchester-based alternative grunge band and marks their first new music since previous single, Personal Space, which was released back in October 2021.

Lyrically, the new single urges people not to let the monotony of life stop them from pursuing their true passions – a message the band has held onto during their time away from the spotlight. The themes of control extend into the band’s self-shot music video, featuring a lobster caught and put up for sale in a supermarket’s live lobster tank.

“After watching the episode of The Simpsons where Homer keeps a lobster as a pet, I always wondered what would happen if you actually did that,” vocalist/guitarist Jen Hingley explains. “Although it’s difficult to know for sure, as obviously we didn’t want to cause any real harm to real lobsters when making the video…”

The band teamed up with animator Callum Scott-Dyson for the finishing touches on the video, who created a stop-motion flashback of the lobster’s life before capture.
