WATCH THE JULIE RUIN'S NEW MUSIC VIDEO FOR "MR. SO AND SO"
VIDEO - "Mr. So and So" [dir. Kathleen Hanna]
VIDEO - "I'm Done" [dir. Laura Parnes]
LYRIC VIDEO - "I Decide" [dir. Brendan Kennedy]
Today, PAPER Magazine shared The Julie Ruin's new music video for "Mr. So and So," directed by lead singer Kathleen Hanna. The video--which you can watch here or by clicking the .gif above--expands on the themes of tokenization discussed in the song, a standout from the band's new release Hit Reset. The Julie Ruin drummer Carmine Covelli plays the eponymous "Mr. So and So," a self-proclaimed "male feminist" whose actions speak louder than his words.
Hit Reset is currently number one on the CMJ charts, and the band hits the road again tonight for a string of shows up and down the East Coast. See below for a full list of dates.
