Kicking off a bold new era, platinum certified alt-pop rockers Mother Mother share a brand new single and music video entitled ‘The Matrix’ today via Warner Records. Listen HERE now and the official video will launch at 5pm GMT today (Nov 3rdHERE. It heralds the arrival of their keenly awaited forthcoming full-length album, Grief Chapter, set for release on February 16th — pre-order it HERE.

On Grief Chapter, vocalist, songwriter and guitarist Ryan Guldemond swings big, goes as grandiose with songwriting as he does granular, with big picture concepts like life, death, mourning, and the freedom that comes with accepting the inevitable – seemingly heavy themes that, magically, are buoyed by lyrical moments of complexity and lightness throughout the albums 12 tracks.

As Guldemond explains, “Death and grief rooted themselves in these songs, but not morosely. It’s used more as a reference point for how to live more fully and presently. Life is fleeting, therefore it’s precious, and death is the most effective way I know to frame this miracle of living.”

The new single ‘The Matrix’ deploys dreamy keys and swooning vocals that give the illusion of a future-facing lullaby. The accompanying visual taps into this otherworldly energy, and also contains a huge number of easter eggs and references to Mother Mother lore woven throughout the single room set for fans to discover.

It continues what has become a tradition of captivating content by the group, following recent singles ‘To My Heart and fan-favorite ‘Normalize’, which was the first release from Mother Mother since 2022’s universally acclaimed album INSIDE.‘Normalize’ arrived with an intense video directed by acclaimed horror director Colin Minihan (Grave Encounters, What Keeps You Alive). Soon after, the band released an alternate fan video of the track that collected clips from the band’s global community of fanatics. Click HERE to watch the ‘Normalize (Alternate Fan Video)’.

Making a major impact, Mother Mother have quietly become one of 21st century rock’s brightest rising acts. Thus far, Mother Mother have tallied a staggering 6.9 billion global streams and 3.9 billion views across YouTube. Meanwhile, their 2021 album, INSIDE, piled up 300 million streams, while their social imprint has dramatically expanded.
