Mannequin Pussy release a mind-bending video for their new single “Nothing Like.” On the yearning song, which is anchored by a dancey, shuffling drum beat from Kaleen Reading, Marisa Dabice’s voice eventually morphs from a coo to a roar as she sings, “Oh what’s wrong with dreaming of burning this all down?” The video was created by AI artist and director Connor Clarke with creative direction by Anthony Miralles and Mason Mercer of Slips Studios.

Of the song, Dabice says “‘Nothing Like’ is pure fantasy. Originally inspired by a stoned out night 6 years ago spent watching an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer in which Buffy is forced to kill her lover, Angel, before he destroys the world. The song existed in fragments until it finally met its final form last year. Young love is so often all consuming, dangerous, and heightened to mythological proportions - ‘Nothing Like’ sought to mix the balance of both the light feelings of new love and the absolute depths that obsession can bring you to.”
