Jenny Hval went full ’90s House on her latest single, “Accident.”
On the accompanying video, there’s a calming, yet eerie element to the sequence of existentialism that the central character experiences.
Of the most bananas lyrics I ‘ve ever listened to in my life, …she found stretch-mark cream in an Air BnB bathroom,” is definitely up there. The only way that you can follow up a line like that is an unnerving scene of a visibly mature pregnant woman leaking an inordinate amount of water with a flashing light from her motherhood were unexpected and surprising.
The level of weirdness is high and most definitely piqued interest in the rest of the album scheduled for release September 13 via Sacred Bones.
