From The Nightingales new studio album 'The Awful Truth' (out 4th April) a modern mutant music hall interpretation of the day’s news, a haunting jolt into realism narrated with all the angst of an insistent, slightly dishevelled late-night newscaster.
'Same Old Riff’ recalls Bowie’s ‘Queen Bitch’ rekindling the class war struggles and throwing sharp focus on the national unrest in the summer of 2024. Released alongside a brand new music video, ‘Same Old Riff’ is directed by Rob Curry (The Chills: The Triumph & The Tragedy Of Martin Phillipps, The Ballad Of Shirley Collins) and is a Situationist call to action inspired by the upheavals of Paris '68. Pre-order album here: nightingales.lnk.to/TheAwfulTruthID
“The powerless are the problem, as if, as if”
Director: Rob Curry
Cinematographer: Richard Mitchell
Design: Dominic Thackray
Photographer: Ming de Nasty
Location Manager: Nobby Neat
Filmed on location at the Forester's Arms, Horsehay and in Telford, Shropshire
