Introducing Schoolgirls by Rangleklods
Rangleklods shares their new and second single and music video “Schoolgirls” from their forthcoming album Straitjacket (out May 18th via Tambourhinoceros). The first single “Lost U” featured Pernille Smith-Sivertsen as the lead singer but on “Schoolgirls” Esben Nørskov Andersen takes the lead with his characteristic baritone voice to represent the darker side of the Rangleklods universe.
About the song and the video Esben and Pernille explains:
"Schoolgirls is a song about forbidden lust within a total lack of intimacy. A conceptualized piece of erotica. Japanese anime porn and Nabokov's haunting 'Lolita' inspired us to fantasize about a power struggle between desire and submission in a modern world no one fully understands. The video is a visual exploration of these exact themes.”
