SON LUX REVEALS VIDEO FOR “LOST IT TO TRYING (MOUTHS ONLY LYING)”

Today, Son Lux is sharing its new video for “Lost It To Trying (Mouths Only Lying)” off its recent Alternate Worlds EP, out now via Joyful Noise Recordings. Director Imogen Murphy noted that “the lush musical production and beautifully layered melody merited an intense narrative. The song is full of melancholy emotion so the treatment had to go deep and dark. The film shows a couple in a disintegrating relationship, unable to move on because of the weight of mutual negativity they carry.” Listen to “Lost It To Trying (Mouths Only Lying)” here:
