It’s always struck us that five-piece Isle of Wight band Plastic Mermaids have a pretty clear picture of how they want to be perceived.
If you’ve been to one of their gigs, you’ll know they’re not just five guys performing on a stage. Their surroundings are dressed to create a certain atmosphere, enhancing the whole experience. And boy, does it work.
Weird and wonderful
That holistic approach also extends to the band’s music videos. Their latest offering, Playing In Your Mind, ticks all the right boxes.
A combination of film, stop motion animation, special effects and the use of mannequins adds up to the usual psychedelic experience we’ve come to expect from the band.
And we love it!
Plastic Mermaids release their second EP, Inhale The Universe, through Cross Keys Records on 9th March.
