We’re pleased to bring you the premiere of Sloucher’s music video for their song “Perfect For You” (watch it below). The track is taken from the band’s forthcoming debut full-length Be True, which is scheduled to be released on November 16, 2018 through Swoon Records. You can pre-order the album here.
Jay Clancy of Sloucher commented on the song & video:
‘Perfect For You’ is a song about duality and conflicting emotions, or an inner turmoil. Specifically, it’s about a time I was driving to a party that I didn’t really want to go to, and I kept turning the car around to head home, then turning back around to go to the party. I wasn’t sure whether I should stay home and isolate myself or suck it up and go do something I didn’t necessarily want to. I kind of felt like two people at the same time.
Sonically, we took the quiet verse/loud chorus grunge formula and flipped it on its head so the verses are loud and aggressive, and the choruses are soft and sensitive.
The video ties into this theme of contrast or conflict, with opposing bright/dark lighting in the different sections of the song. The camera is also rotating in circles like when I was driving in circles. There is some humor, there is some darkness. I always have to remind myself of the humor in my darkness in order to move on from it.
