Scottish electronic outfit Union of Knives have released their new single “Like Butterflies.”

The music video for the track, which you can see below, features Glasgow-based dancer Alexandra Tsiapi. Vocalist Chris Gordon said this about the visual:

“I spent a January morning filming her improvise to "Like Butterflies" in her beautiful top floor Georgian studio in Govan (Glasgow). She jerked and fluttered and floated all across the room with such grace and commitment, perfectly synched to the spiritual sense of the song."

The track stems from Union of Knives’ forthcoming studio album Endless From The Start, which is their long-awaited follow-up to 2006’s Violence & Birdsong. The album also features their previously released collaboration with Ladytron’s Helen Marnie titled “A Tall Tale.” Pre-orders for the new album can be made here.

Since 2009, MP3s and NPCs owner Terrance Pryor has written about music, conventions, cosplay, and video games for publications such as AXS, Examiner, Fake Walls, and Ranker. Based out of Los Angeles, the former rock concert promoter/radio host can be seen talking about rock music on AXS TV’s Music’s Greatest Mysteries and discussing music and whatever else on their Black Man Talks Rock channel on YouTube.
