Assume a extra fashionable Fiona Apple in some methods. This new monitor launched earlier in the present day titled “Clouded World”, nevertheless, is extra of a pissed off rocker than something.

The video beneath options cameos from each Taipei Houston (and Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich’s son) Myles Ulrich, in addition to solo artist Lola Colette. The music itself was recorded just some months earlier than the loss of life of the late Steve Albini at Electrical Audio.
