U.S. Girls has shared a new single ballad, ‘
Bless This Mess’, with a music video accompaniment.
It follows the experimental alt-popper’s last release, ‘
So Typically Now’, which dropped back in July. Solo musician
Meg Remy uses the new ballad to enter a stripped-back diva era after a series of upbeat bangers.
“Before camera phones, the family camcorder was often the mirror tool used to capture selfie-like performances of teenage daydreams and insecurities,” Remy recalls. “Recently I unearthed a VHS tape housing footage of my 1998 self singing on top of my favourite songs of the day, along with my 2000 self publicly performing music for the first time, plus various other blush-worthy self-portraits. I decided to air out this acutely personal footage. My meta music video vision: 1998 self singing a song that 2020 self wrote.”
