Methyl Ethel Announce New LP 'Are You Haunted?', Stream "Proof (ft. Stella Donnelly)"

Australian indie rock/alt-pop band Methyl Ethel have announced the release of their fourth studio album 'Are You Haunted?'.

The follow-up to 2019's Triage will be out on February 18 via Future Classic. Pre-order your copy here.

About the new single Proof (feat. Stella Donnelly) Methyl Ethel's lead singer Jake Webb explains: A lot of the ideas in Proof come from thinking about what we mean when we talk about truth. It’s also a song that was inspired by watching a lot of old European cinema, which I love. We decided to play with some of those themes, the use of black and white throughout is intended to be read in the idiomatic sense, of things being ‘black and white’. Two people are discussing, explaining their version of truth, their Proof.

Working with Stella has been a joy from the start, that sentiment continued when we were making this clip. Who else could I possibly approach to join me in bringing this song to life if not the truth-telling queen herself! The seen and unseen, the art of subterfuge, and the psychoanalytical reading of dreams are all elements that we’ve played with here in what was my absolute favourite video to make so far.
