Get Well Soon premiere video for new single ‘Roland, I Feel You’

I’ve been eagerly waiting for  the release of Get Well Soon‘s third album The Scarlet Beast O’ Seven Heads – La Bestia Scarlatta Con Sette Teste, which drops on August 27th via City Slang, as previously mentioned.

Konstantin Gropper, the talented songwriter and multi-instrumentalist behind Get Well Soon, has just released an epic and berserk 7-minute video for ‘Roland, I Feel You’, the new single lifted from his forthcoming album.

‘Roland, I Feel You’ is “a not-so-serious ode written by Konstantin in honour of a certain internationally-known German director of apocalyptic movies”, explained the label. “The song gave life to a symphony of cinematic tributes in this breathtaking video, which contains more references than a coffee table book on cinema.”

Philipp Kaessbohrer directed the video and you can watch it now. Enjoy.

Get Well Soon tease forthcoming third album with brand new track

German outfit Get Well Soon, the project of songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Konstantin Gropper, have just announced the release of their third full-length album entitled The Scarlet Beast O’ Seven Heads – La Bestia Scarlatta Con Sette Teste.
The album has a cinematic feel to it, which is not surprising since Gropper was busy scoring films and even a French TV series for the last year. Here’s how the man himself describes the album:

“To my new album, the average billionaire trustfund kid can happily cruise around the mountains atop Largo di Garda in his convertible, complete with trophy girlfriend in the passenger seat. But if he feels like it, he can also get off his medication and just go crashing through the barriers.”

The Scarlet Beast O’ Seven Heads – La Bestia Scarlatta Con Sette Teste is due out on August 27th via City Slang, just hit this link to pre-order the album.

‘You Cannot Cast Out The Demons (You Might As Well Dance)’ is the first taste from the forthcoming album and its free to download on soundcloud. Get Well Soon described it as “a tribute to all the troubled women who ever played any role in an Alfred Hitchcock movie”. Listen to it below.
