Scottish pop-punks Wrong Life released their new self-titled album today, and Dying Scene is stoked to bring you the exclusive premiere of the music video for “Living in the Key of Hope”. Here’s what frontman Fraser had to say about the video, which you can watch below:
“‘Living in the Key of Hope’ is the last song on the new self-titled Wrong Life album, which is out today. I didn’t feel comfortable miming along to the words of the song, and getting someone else to do it has been done a million times already, so the next logical step seemed to be getting my oldest friend to dress up as a mime artist for the first time in his life and do all of the heavy lifting.
Massive thanks to Brian the Mime, Josh, Simon and The Banshee Labyrinth in Edinburgh for turning my poorly thought-out idea into something unexpectedly heartwarming and definitely a lot better than it would’ve been otherwise.”
Fraser has fronted a lot of great punk bands (The Murderburgers, FUCK! (It’s Pronounced SHIT!), etc.), and Wrong Life is no exception. You can find their new album on all major streaming platforms. Physical copies are available in the UK from Brassneck Records (vinyl) and Limited Fun Records (CD). My fellow Americans can buy the LP from Rad Girlfriend Records, or if cassettes are your thing, our friends at Cat’s Claw Records have you covered.
