EMA has shared a video for Fire Water Air LSD.
The song is cut from the Portland-based artist's new album, 'Exile in the Outer Ring', which was released this summer through City Slang.
Speaking about the video, Erika M. Anderson said:
"I had seen DaVideo Tape around PDX and the media center by my house. He always wore an X-Files hat and made crazy VR. He liked the reptilian virgin mary t-shirt design I had made for EMA. I had a week before leaving on tour and I really needed a video made -- I discovered he is a rad analog video artist so I asked him to make an EMA vid. He brought in his own Reptilian mask. I think the footage is fucking hilarious. He opened up a very playful side of me and this is one of the only videos where you will see me dancing and just kind of goofing off. Our inspirations were reptilians and the county fair. I used a lot of lizards and snakes in my own VR project in 2015 -- to me they represent layers of hidden meaning and hidden reality, or at least belief in hidden layers of reality. The county fair is just cuz when I wrote this song I wanted it to sound like Guns N Roses coming out of grandstand speakers at a demolition derby."
Alongside the new visual, EMA has also announced that she will support Depeche Mode on their upcoming European arena tour between January 17 and February 4.
