L.A.’s Moaning has shared a video for “Fall In Love,” the latest from their forthcoming sophomore album, Uneasy Laughter (Sub Pop) with a release date of March 20th. The video was animated and directed by Moaning’s own Sean Solomon.   

Of the song and video, Solomon says “People my age are skeptical of love because we see how many previous generations got divorced or went through painful experiences. The song is about being afraid to fall in love because of expecting heartbreak. It’s about hating yourself too much to open yourself up to someone else. It’s a bummer of a song lyrically but it’s pretty fun to dance to!

I made the music video in my bedroom a couple of weeks ago. It’s a psychedelic depiction of an imaginary romance. It’s inspired by early experimental animations like Belladonna of Sadness and Heavy Metal. Both the song and the video are perfect for everyone feeling like shit this Valentine’s Day.”

Moaning has also announced a spring tour that includes a free hometown show in Los Angeles presented by Doc Martens, a stop at Austin, TX’s SXSW Music Festival, and a run in support of Black Marble. All tour dates below.
