Petrol Girls release new music video for ‘Weather Warning’
PETROL GIRLS have released a brand new music video!
The new music video, for their track Weather Warning, is taken from the band’s second album Cut & Stitch, which is released today.
Speaking about the track, vocalist Ren Aldridge says, “I struggled to put lyrics to this track for a really long time. But following a week of spectacularly shit mental health in the studio, I made it into a motivational sonic kick up the arse and back into action. I personally find a lot of the discourse around mental health a bit claustrophobic and babying, and that contributes to me feeling worse. Independence, activity and purposefulness are what I need to keep my shit together. I wrote this song for myself – if it’s useful for other people that’s cool, but everyone’s different, and I really want to underline that.”
