Angel Olsen airs eight-and-a-half-minute single/short film "Sister"
Angel Olsen reveals "Sister", an eight-and-a-half-minute preview of upcoming record MY WOMAN.
This monster of a song follows "Intern" and "Shut Up Kiss Me", and comes with a rather lovely short film shot in Los Angeles and at the Joshua Tree National Park.
The accompanying vid is directed by Conor Hagen, who says: “I wanted to keep from cutting these shots up too much. I wanted to slow frames down just enough for the cinematography to make its own statement. My aim was to gather a mixture of very different themed material, and somehow take a look at the synchronicity that material naturally brought forward... ’Sister’ addresses conflict within and then moves beyond it. The song is lyrically contradictory, so we wanted to show those opposing dualities. The contrast between a wide shot and a close-up, the duality between the city and that natural world, joy and melancholy.”
MY WOMAN is out 2 September via Jagjaguwar - it's currently our Album Of The Week.
