A few weeks away from the release of their 4th studio album, MisterWives are marking their growth in the industry with leaps and bounds of changes for their sound. Ultraviolet is a melody that encapsulates the new age that social media created for the world going forward, an ‘information tidal wave’ as lead singer, Mandy Lee, croons at the start of Ultraviolet. Along with the release of the single, the music video that partners the song shows Mandy in a field on a mountain with arrows jutting out of her back. Possibly the arrows are a metaphor for the eyes that come with social media and how easily loving eyes of fans can turn into daggers with a flip of the metaphorical switch.
“Ultraviolet is a delicate and intimate reflection of struggling with comparison, self deprecation, lack of embodiment and the awareness of wanting to break those lifelong unhealthy coping mechanisms that no longer serve who you want to be.” Throughout the track, Lee learns to embrace her flaws and accept herself for who she is, gradually working towards self-empowerment and growth. “Much like the flowers, we all carry so much within ourselves that isn’t presented on the surface and I hope this song is a reminder to be gentle and compassionate with ourselves and each other.”
