Things Aren’t As They Seem in Wolf Alice’s Otherworldly New Video for “Sadboy”

Wolf Alice has released a new video for their song Sadboy and it’s strange and bizzare to say the least. The track is taken from their latest release Visions of a Life, which came out in 2017 and represents the british band’s second studio LP. The album almost got the group a BRIT award for best group this year, but they lost to Gorillaz, as upset magazine reported.

The video shows the band heading to a house party, which turns out to be a very weird and creepy one. Guests walk around wearing bizarre masks and start enjoying themselves with dancing and what appears to be heavy drinking. The band’s singer Ellie Rowsell partakes in the partying but ends up in the bathroom puking a strange-looking, blacked-colored liquid until she finds herself alone in the dark trying, by the end, to reach for the other party guests, in the meantime disappeared, only to see them vanish before her very eyes, a few inches away from her.

Wolf Alice will be on the road again this spring, in support of their latest release, starting March 16th in Berkeley, CA at the Cornerstone. The band has also announced 7 shows in which they will support Queens Of The Stone Age and an appearance at New York City’s famous Governors Ball as well as performing at multiple festivals such as Reading & Leeds, Latitude and TRNSMT. Over the summer, in June specifically, the band will also support Foo Fighters on a bunch of stadium dates.

Recently, as NME reported, the band appeared on the Australian radio station Triple J for a live performance of Charli XCX’s Boys and The Cure’s Boys Don’t Cry cover mash-up. The performance came in response to Charli XCX’s take on Don’t Delete The Kisses, which she later on fully remixed.

As part of the Australian tour, the band has also performed at Melbourne’s Laneway Festival.
