Blink and you’ll miss Wasp Mother’s video for their song, “Gravemouth” from their EP Digital Pollution.
The Massachusetts four piece is Jenny Mac on vocals along with Kevin Sigourney on guitar and vocals, George on drums, and Pete on bass.
Kevin has said this about Digital Pollution,
“Digital Pollution is a tongue-in-cheek jab at the modern idea of artists as content creators with each successive work being left behind as new content fills the void of malaise. With the digitization of art, the constant flow of social media feeds and the twenty-four-second-news-cycle our appetites and attention span for media has become insatiable in a way where the meaning of the art we’re viewing is being lost in a sea of likes, comments, the all-knowing algorithm. Spiraling through depressive doom-scrolling while trying to climb the fettered ladder between streaming movies, tv shows, audio books and videogames Digital Pollution found itself contrived amongst classic literature, real world pain, and the horrors of history. This is our way of saying, ‘Shut the fuck up and listen, this is bigger than us, this is bigger than you.’ Stop and smell the fucking garbage.”
The video was filmed at Saint Vitus Brooklyn by Jordan Rowe and Thom Berg.
