CLOVES announces second album with new single "Nightmare"
CLOVES has announced her second album Nightmare On Elmfield Road, alongside revealing new track "Nightmare" to accompany the news.
"Nightmare", CLOVES, explains, "is about being gaslit by your own Brain. I think a lot of the time when people talk about gaslighting they are touching on how it feels to be manipulated by others, I wanted "Nightmare" to represent how it feels to be getting that same kind of toxicity from conversations with yourself."
The new single, which is accompanied by news of her second album Nightmare On Elmfield Road, follows earlier outings "Manic", "Sicko" and "Dead", all of which will also feature on the upcoming record.
Nightmare On Elmfield Road will follow CLOVES' 2018 debut One Big Nothing, and features production from Clarence "Coffee" Jr (Dua Lipa), Detonate, Hudson Mohawke and Jake Portrait from Unknown Mortal Orchestra.
CLOVES, real name Kaity Dunstan, says of the album, "The album is a series of songs that to me represent the complexity of emotions you experience when you can’t pull yourself out of a spiral - or an entire other world going on behind the eyes that only you know about. There was a lot of genuine sadness in my life, and it’s easy to feel frustrated by your own negativity and lose all effort to care."
