Mothers is the project of singer/songwriter Kristine Leschper. Her sophomore album, Render Another Ugly Method, is coming out September 7 on ANTI-. This week she shared a video for its second single, a somewhat epic seven-minute long jolt of post-punk entitled “Pink.” Jake Lazovick and Richard Phillip Smith directed the video for “Pink,” which features Leschper stuck in a doctor’s waiting room as the sun sets and it turns to night. Watch it below, followed by Mothers’ upcoming tour dates.

Leschper had this to say about the song in a press release: “‘Pink’ deals with the passage of time. It describes a series of memories within cars - cars of my childhood, recent past, and present - and subsequent feelings of childlike removal and helplessness. The video aims to reciprocate these three vignettes of idling, through limited actions and minimalist set design divided into three parts.”

Mothers started in Athens, Georgia where Leschper was attending printmaking school, but she’s now based in Philadelphia. Render Another Ugly Method is the follow-up to 2016’s debut album, When You Walk a Long Distance You Are Tired, and was produced by John Congleton (St. Vincent, Angel Olsen, The War on Drugs). Previously they shared the album’s first single, “Blame Kit.”
