A couple of weeks on from the release of the single, Mimi Barks has given HOUSE FULL OF FAKES the full video treatment.

Unsurprisingly the doom trap favourite looks like a total badass in her latest promo, perfectly reflecting the dark intensity of the single’s subject matter.

“The present moment exudes a sense of post-apocalyptic insanity, both internally and externally – Doom Eternal,” she says. “This destructiveness infiltrates not only history but also homes and streets, mirrored in the way we communicate with one another. Collective thoughts, beliefs, and energies are tainted with despair and aggression.

“A deep longing to live in the Now, striving to avoid being consumed by the chaos – a struggle intensified when the mind still controls you. Proximity to self-destruction and toxicity makes the pursuit of consciousness a constant battle.”

HOUSE FULL OF FAKES is taken from Mimi’s debut album THIS IS DOOM TRAP, which is due out on September 26 via Silent Cult. You can hear her perform it live in just two days’ time, too, on 2000trees’ Forest Sessions stage.

But first, check out some killer behind-the-scenes pics on the set of HOUSE FULL OF FAKES:
