“‘Actor’ is about contorting your character to fit into a disfigured view of the perfect self in order to belong,” the band explain. “It’s about acting every day and projecting artificial images of yourself through social media and in real life interactions with others. This helps to reassure you that you are important, relevant, interesting and necessary but behind it all there’s a sinking feeling. It’s not you. It’s an act. It’s tiring.
“These days we’re all doing it. It seems to be essential but there has to be another way, an honest existence.”
