Maud The Moth release new music video for ‘Despeñaperros’

MAUD THE MOTH have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Despeñaperros, is taken from the S panish-born and Scotland-based pianist, singer and songwriter Amaya Lopez-Carromero‘s upcoming new album, The Distaff, which is scheduled to be released in February this year, via The Lavarium.

Speaking about the new single, the artist shares, “Despeñaperros is one of the cornerstones of The Distaff’s universe. A canyon and natural reserve with dramatic geology and very violent historical background, the Despeñaperros Pass is a gateway into the wilderness. Its name, which can be translated as ‘where dogs are thrown off the cliff’, has unclear origins and adds to the lore and mystery shrouding this area in the Spanish collective consciousness. Growing up in an environment where hunting and animal cruelty were commonplace and artistic sensitivities often ridiculed, Despeñaperros unfolded in my imagination, transcending its real physical location, and reforming as a quasi-mythical location for the sacrifice of those perceived as weak, different, misunderstood or simply challenging tradition.”

The Distaff is set for release on February 21st via The Lavarium. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
