Indie Pop Duo CLAVVS Release Their New Extended EP "No Saviors"
Brooklyn-based indie pop duo CLAVVS have shared their new extended EP for their acclaimed project “No Saviors”. The “No Saviors (Extended)” EP includes two new singles, "Half Moon" and "Dark Thoughts" as well as their double singles "Keeps" and "Fade" released last year.
Last week, the video for "Half Moon" was premiered, and featured two dancers falling in and out of love, like stages of the moon. Using juxtaposing settings of a bright sun-lit abandoned building and an empty neon nightclub, "Half Moon" explores all of love's complexities, it's perpetuity and it's transience.
On the video, Amber describes, “Half Moon” is about the hope of returning to lost love and the cycle of that never-ending dance. In the same way that the moon disappears just to reappear, this song is about that perpetual movement of feeling— joy into pain, loss into love. For the video, we wanted to express that circular pattern through a dance narrative.
I’m bisexual, and since that part of my identity often gets erased, I chose to feature two female dancers as a way to make space for that part of myself. This song and its story also have a strong feminine quality to me, and the dancers, Matilda Sakamoto and Eloise Deluca, captured that feeling with such tenderness and urgency. It’s a story about forgiveness and redemption. Ultimately, love is a dance we all do over and over again, whether with our partners or with ourselves."
