Liars have released a music video for their latest single, “From What the Never Was.” The video, directed by filmmaker Clemens Habicht, is an homage to iconic sci-fi films.
The clip is the third in a trilogy directed by Habicht for Liars’ upcoming album, The Apple Drop, out August 6th via Mute. It sees band members Angus Andrew, Laurence Pike, and Cameron Deyell traversing deep space when the mission goes terribly wrong.
“In preparation for the video, I went back to the ‘Sekwar’ cave to map it three-dimensionally,” Andrew explained in a statement.
