Melbourne band RVG are excited to today share the new single and video 'Christian Neurosurgeon' from forthcoming album Feral.  Overnight the video premiered via Les Inrocks (FR), and has also received coverage in Mindies (ES) and Glam (PT).

The track is the second offering from RVG's sophomore album Feral and the accompanying video features the band donning scrubs and scalpels in a Twilight Zone-style spooker. 

Romy Vager from RVG on Christian Neurosurgeon:

"Its a very simple song about cognitive dissonance. Its not just a song about bagging Christianity, its more about how we have to hold onto certain ideas to be able to survive, even if they're not true."

The video was directed by Caity Moloney and Tom Mannion of Lazy Susan Productions and features the band in a twisted, neuro nightmare! Romy Vager plays a brain that wouldn't die at the hands of drummer Marc Nolte and his faithful assistants, band members Reuban Bloxham and Isabele Wallace.

The filmmakers had this to say about making the video:

"The video was very fun to make for us and hopefully the band too - even though we put them in some pretty weird situations. We just embraced the song and went full surgical horror, using hand developed black and white 16mm film so the video feels almost as lo fi as the medical operation RVG are running in it. It was shot by our DOP Jesse Gohier-Fleet, who did an amazing job making every frame as spooky as possible. We've watched the video alot and still laugh every time so thanks to RVG for bringing the comedy gold!"

In some sad news, RVG's Australian support tour with the Pixies was unfortunately cut short after only two Melbourne dates, due to the unfolding COVID-19 situation.  These dates are due to be rescheduled, and the rest of RVG's touring plans are currently on hold.
