Today, Shout Out Louds share the poignant new video for “Porcelain.” (TW: Video contains a scene of sexual assault.) Directed by Nim Sundström and set in Japan, it depicts the close friendship between three adolescent girls, and how crucial their bond proves to be when one of them is faced with an extremely ugly situation. Sundström writes, “It’s not easy being different when you’re young. It’s especially not easy being a young girl who’s different. So I at least wanted these girls to have each other.”

Shout Out Louds will soon be touring North America for the first time in years and tickets are moving fast, so find the show nearest you and get yours today! Keep up with Shout Out Louds’ antics on Facebook and Instagram, too.
