Sep 02, 2015 Cheatahs By Christopher Roberts

As we previously reported, London-based shoegazers Cheatahs are releasing their sophomore album, Mythologies, on October 30 via Wichita. The band has already shared the album’s first single, “Seven Sisters,” which features guest vocals from London musicians Liv Willars and Heather Perkins. Now the song has a video, which you can watch below.

Cheatahs’ bassist Dean Reid commented on the video in a press release, saying: “It was directed by our good friend Conan Roberts in Dungeness. Dungeness is one of the most surreal places in the UK - basically desert wasteland by the sea. It’s littered with abandoned buildings and boats and train tracks. It reminded me of parts of the south western US, where I’m from. You can see why artists and filmmakers and people flock here. Despite all of us getting sun burnt to a crisp it was one of the easiest and fluid videos we have made.”

Mythologies is the follow-up to 2014’s self-titled debut album and the more recent EPs Sunne and Murasaki. Below is the “Seven Sisters” video, followed by the band’s upcoming U.K. tour dates.
