Pom Pom Squad have announced their new album '
Mirror Starts Moving Without Me', set for release on 25th October via City Slang Records.
The band have unveiled the new single '
Spinning' alongside the album announcement. Frontperson Mia Berrin said of the track, "The song represents a moment when I was learning to cope with painful memories of the past and how they've shaped my future. In accepting them, I've been able to find more freedom and forgiveness within myself."
A music video for 'Spinning', directed by Berrin and Benjamin Lieber, has also been released, with Berrin explaining: "A lot of the lyrics on the album have to do with watching/analyzing yourself, so I knew I wanted to create a surveillance room setup for something. It turned out to be a really fun home-base for the 'Spinning' video."
The album was previously teased with the release of '
Downhill'. Berrin explained, "I was thinking a lot about the push-pull between those opposing sides of my personality. Sometimes being ambitious feels like being self-destructive and I wanted to explore the line between the two."
Discussing the album title, Berrin said, "The album title is inspired by a horror movie trope and relates to the uncanny feeling of seeing yourself reflected — both literally and figuratively. It was my most challenging creative experience to date and a true labor of love."
