British four-piece Savages are releasing their sophomore album, Adore Life, on January 22 via Matador. Previously the band had shared a video for “The Answer” and the audio of the unrelenting “T.I.W.Y.G.” Now the band has shared another song from the record, the ballad of sorts “Adore” via its video. Anders Malmberg (Mew, Mø) directed the clip with lighting and concept design by Tobias Rylander (The xx, FKA twigs). It is a direct clip, with frontwoman Jehnny Beth singing right into the camera. The song starts slow, but builds at the end, and was inspired by the American poet Minnie Bruce Pratt. Watch below.

Adore Life is the follow-up to 2013’s acclaimed debut album, Silence Yourself (not counting 2014’s Words to the Blind, their collaborative album with Bo Ningen). The band recorded the album last April in London with producer Johnny Hostile and engineer Richard Woodcraft. They mixed the album in Copenhagen with Danish electronic producer Trentemøller. Back in August the band shared a teaser trailer for the album that featured Henry Rollins.
