WATCH “STRANGER DANGER”

SHOP THE DEVIL YOU KNOW LP/CD/CS/DIG

The Coathangers have added a new run of US dates to their ever-expanding tour in support of new album The Devil You Know, released last month on Suicide Squeeze. In celebration, the band have shared a new Matt Odom-directed video for album stand-out “Stranger Danger.”

Vocalist and drummer Stephanie Luke says of the song: “Stranger Danger is a song about avoiding the negative people in one’s life, like when your mother used to tell you ‘stranger danger!’ so you wouldn’t go off with the bad guys. The video is dark with flashes of light (actual flashlights) to invoke that feeling of the unknown. Then we have our ever so good sport of a friend [and album artwork artist/frequent collaborator] Scott Montoya, whom we’ve kidnapped and continue to ‘terrorize’ throughout the video, so we in fact have become the dangerous strangers. This was one of our favorites to make with our amazingly talented videographer Matt Odom, enjoy!”

The band, currently winding down the first leg of their US tour, are broadcasting a live session from Paste Studios today at 12:30pm EST ahead of their show at Music Hall of Williamsburg in New York City tomorrow night. Tune in here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lBGsuTWfGo
