British five-piece Editors have shared a new song, “Frankenstein,” via a video for the track. Jacknife Lee produced the dancefloor-ready track and Greg Ohrel directed the cinematic video. Right now it’s a standalone single on Play It Again Sam. Watch the video below.

In a press release frontman Tom Smith describes “Frankenstein” as “a song of joy and escapism - a cartoon song for the freaks, the different and for the night.”

Ohrel had this to say about the video: “We’ve been so lucky to work with Editors on this. They’ve been supportive throughout, with a crazy idea like this it only works if you go 100% and they made that happen. This is about fan obsession where we’ve turned the extreme into the ridiculous!”

Editors’ last regular album, Violence, was released back in March 2018 via Play It Again Sam. Although this April (on Record Store Day) they released The Blanck Mass Sessions, a new, more electronic, version of Violence featuring the original production work on the songs done by Blanck Mass (aka Benjamin John Power of Fuck Buttons). We previously posted its first single, the new song “Barricades,” via a video for the track.
