Get Well Soon Unveils Video For New Single 'Roland, I Feel You'

German multi-instrumentalist Konstantin Gropper AKA Get Well Soon has unveiled the video for the lead single from his forthcoming new album 'The Scarlet Beast O'Seven Heads' (out 3rd September via City Slang).
The video for 'Roland, I Feel You' premièred on The Quietus last week and is now publicly available online. It's fully embeddable and is an amazing watch - all 7+ minutes of it!
Speaking to The Quietus about the video, Konstantin said: "This video visualises the whole album rather than just the one song. Much like the album, it's sort of a collage with a lot of references, but never too obvious. Parts of it may remind you of Italian Westerns, Argento, Jodorowski, Czech fairy tales, Godzilla and so on.... but I think and I hope that in the end it's a whole new film of its own. That was the idea: to create a trailer."
'The Scarlet Beast O'Seven Heads' is released on the 3rd September and is Konstantin's third full album. His two previous albums (2008's 'Rest Now, Weary Head! You Will Get Well Soon' and 2010's 'Vexations') have sold over 100,000 copies, taken continental Europe by storm and have drawn comparisons to the likes of Sufjan Stevens, Arcade Fire and Rufus Wainwright.
Get Well Soon - the “bastard child of Radiohead and Bright Eyes” as Music Week once christened him - will arrive in the UK for a stand-alone headline show at London's Hoxton Bar & Kitchen on the 12th September. Click Here to Compare & Buy Get Well Soon Tickets.
