Amen Dunes, the musical project led by Damon McMahon, has recently shared a new song and video for the track “Boys” from the album “Death Jokes.” In the video, McMahon sings languidly on a sofa while a pair of miscreants wreak havoc and destroy his living room. The concept of the song, as described by McMahon in a press release, revolves around portraying outcasts and “bad kids,” and seeing things from their perspective. The lyrics reflect this sentiment with the line, “Everything you’ve done, it’s been done to you too.”
“Boys” is part of Amen Dunes’ upcoming album, “Death Jokes,” which is set to be released on May 10th under the Sub Pop label. This album marks Amen Dunes’ debut with the label and follows their 2018 record, “Freedom.”
The release of the new song and video showcases Amen Dunes’ unique musical style and artistic vision. The video, directed by Chassidy David, captures the essence of the song’s concept and adds visual depth to the experience.
Fans can look forward to the release of “Death Jokes” and explore the musical journey that Amen Dunes has crafted. The album promises to offer a captivating and introspective exploration of themes and emotions.
