Snail Mail announces new album and shares murderous new video for "Valentine"
Lindsey Jordan's sophomore album, Valentine, arrives November 5 via Matador
Snail Mail’s Lindsey Jordan goes on a champagne-fueled murderous rampage in her new music video for “Valentine,” ahead of her the release of her sophomore album of the same name on November 5.
The period drama-themed video features a melodramatic and forlorn Jordan smearing cake on her face as she watches her lover dance and show affection for a man. This eventually results in an over-the-top stabbing in the middle of a frivolous dinner party. “It was so rewarding concocting this video alongside the brilliant Josh Coll! Watching a few perverse images in my head metamorphose into this gorgeous storyline and eventually into a tangible visual was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life,” Jordan says in a press release. “We connected over a mutual interest in the intersection between terror and devastating beauty. But also Tim and Eric and watered down ginger ale, which I had to drink a shocking amount of in those drink-bombing scenes.”
