Things Get Weird in DECLAN MCKENNA’s New Video fro ‘Humongous’

Musician releases new single Humongous off of his forthcoming debut album, What Do You Think About The Car?, out next month.

The young singer-songwriter delivers yet another marvellous cut, Humongous, as we eagerly wait for his debut full-length to finally come out.

With a subtle touch to it, Humongous is a graceful opener to the album. Injecting youthful frustration and confusion into the melodic guitar-laden soundscape, Declan McKenna masterfully balances between infectious arena-worthy choruses and a deeper lyrical content. Already stated one the most significant voices of his generation, Declan continues to astonish with his social and political awareness. His potential to create powerful hooks shines once more, leaving no doubt about the upcoming success the future holds for him.

Oscillating on the verge of dream and awake, the wonderfully bizarre visuals will capture your full attention. The video was directed by Taz Tron Delix and you can watch it below.

Declan McKenna explains:

This was the last song I wrote for the record, not to pick a favourite child but I think this might be, definitely a step in the direction I’m heading in, I love big powerful choruses that you can just scream, and I wanted this to be one of those.

I remember writing it just sat home alone with my sister’s guitar in complete euphoria with only a chorus written and nothing else, just shouting the words which are super vague but just summed up all the confusion and frustration I’ve had the last two years.

What Do You Think About The Car? is out 21st July via Columbia Records.

Declan preps for two sets at Glastonbury Festival, making his fourth and fifth appearances in three years. You can also catch him at Latitude, TRNSMT, and Reading & Leeds Festivals.
