"We imagined the emotion to be this kind of nasty fantasy creature that made people act and think differently."
Canberra outfit Sputnik Sweetheart channel pure emotional energy for their first track of the year.
Premiering today via The Music, Jealousy sees the rockers “dig deep and explore the discomfort and chaos that can often affect a person when overcome by envy”.
“Jealousy is one of those uncomfortable emotions that makes you feel not like yourself,” vocalist and guitarist Nette France told The Music.
“You know that feeling where you’re like, ‘Am I losing my mind?’ For the song, we imagined the emotion to be this kind of nasty fantasy creature that made people act and think differently.
“The lyrics are written from the perspective of that creature and the single artwork is a guess at what it might look like.”
Check out the new track above and head to theGuide for all upcoming Sputnik Sweetheart tour dates.
