I the Mighty have released a music video for their song 'A Spoonful of Shallow Makes Your Head An Empty Space' from the bands' latest album, Satori.
Vocalist, Brent Walsh, spoke to Alternative Press about the video:
"I'm sure everyone has known someone at some point who has struck them as fake--whether they're trying too hard, overcompensating, or simply insecure," says Walsh. "I wrote 'A Spoonful of Shallow Makes Your Head an Empty Space' as a conversation or intervention with such an individual.
It also touches on existentialism, (a theme of many songs on the record) with the main tagline at the end of the chorus: 'If you don't know who you are, you're never gonna get that far.'
While the video's concept may not directly correspond with the song's, I think the vibe and the idea of 'freeing yourself' is spot on and it's definitely one of my personal favorite videos we've put out. Not to mention, it's our first-ever animated video, which I'm a big fan of!"
