A 3D model of Alice appears in the accompanying video by Lucas David and Astra Zero.
“I like to make songs that you can dance to when you’re sad. ‘Baby Teeth’ is probably the darkest and most hopeless track on my record, but it sounds misleadingly hopeful,”In a statement, she stated. She stated that the song was about “embracing despair.”
“It understands that violence against the vulnerable is inevitable, and it probably always will be. There will always be people that prey on others for their own gain, sometimes ruining lives for the most fleeting selfish pleasures,”She continued. “This is human nature, and it hurts too much to think about. And sometimes, the only power it feels like we have left is to say, ‘Hey, you can’t hurt me, because I’m hurting myself first. I’ve beat you to it.’ It’s bleak, but this is a reality many of us struggle with. It isn’t fair. It never will be.”
The 13-song set includes Glass’ previously released “Suffer and Swallow,”It arrived in January with a stop motion animated music video. This follows her self-titled solo EP that featured singles. “Forgiveness”And “Without Love.”
