Song Title: Delores Pt II

Director: Eden Mulholland

What's the concept behind the clip? Like the track, Delores Pt II needed to be minimalistic. It's incredibly raw, dark, filled with trails of light, echoes and ghostly flashes slowly transforming into utter chaos to capture the finale on the record.

How long did it take to make? Five hours over a winter's night. We had to wait until around midnight for complete darkness. 

Where did you film it? We filmed the clip in Mt Coolum National Park on the Sunshine Coast. We needed eeriness, darkness and somewhere to capture a night sky. What better place than a beautiful forest in Queensland?

What's your favourite part of the clip? I love the chaos of the final minute. It's epileptic. Kinda like being on The Vomitron with strobe flashes of bodies and floating limbs. And what rock'n'roller doesn't love a reversed, slow-motion hair flick?

Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? Filming all night under the stars in a beautiful forest provided quite a bit of inspiration for our next single.

Will you be launching it? We'll be showcasing it on the road during our east coast tour: 5 Aug, Frankie’s Pizza By The Slice; 9 Aug, Brighton Up Bar; 10 Aug, Last Chance Rock & Roll Bar; 11 Aug, Cherry Bar; 12 Aug, Sonny’s House Of Blues; 13 Aug, Surfair Tattoo Fest After Party, Sunshine Coast.
