Barcelona trio MOURN have announced their forthcoming album ‘Self Worth’ will be released on October 30th via Captured Tracks. Along with the announcement, MOURN released their latest single ‘This Feeling Is Disgusting’.
Speaking about the song, the band said:
“The song is really about fear of the future, being anxious about what’s going to happen, not knowing if you’re going to be able to earn a living or not. It’s a really happy song, but one that represents being stressed out. The idea of “I don’t know if I’ll be able to afford an apartment any time soon, but hey, let’s dance and have fun!” That’s the concept behind it, and that’s what I was thinking about while writing the lyrics. I also thought about my parents, and everyone’s parents. They often have high expectations for you, or they want a certain lifestyle for you, and you don’t always agree with that. So you try so hard to do life your own way, but you’re super stressed out and you’re scared, and every now and then you think “Is it worth it?” In the end, I think it’s worth it”
A video for the song has also been released, on the video they say:
“The video represents us in therapy. The psychologist in the video is our drummer Victor. I was recently diagnosed with depression and severe anxiety, so I’ve been going to therapy myself, and we wanted to show that in a positive way, to make it fun and lighthearted, and let people know that it’s ok to go to therapy and to take care of yourself. We wanted the video to represent how we feel, and the crazy thoughts we have within the space of a therapy office. You can see that throughout the video, even when the setting changes, the sofa and the therapist’s chair are always in the scene. We’re always in that physical space, but our brains take us to happier places. It’s about trying to find your happy place within all the negative feelings.”
