Currently in the midst of a European tour, Mexican garage punk band Le Butcherettes have unveiled the new video for the single ‘My Mallely,’ which appeared on their 2015 LP A Raw Youth. The video sees frontwoman Teri Gender Bender moving through abandoned ruins in Juárez and the streets of New York at the same time, exposing the dualities between the two cities.
Teri Gender Bender added some additional context to the video: “The juxtaposition of the video’s setting, place and time is a roller coaster of emotional history. Juárez. A lost city re-emerging. New York City. Feeling lost in a city that has been emerging. The duality is a constant in every feeling and way. No matter where you are, one absorbs their surroundings and grows within the chaotic element. That to me is the beauty of survivalism.” Watch below.
