Disclosure - “Jaded” (Öfficial Video)

We’re a week and a half away from the release of Caracal, Disclosure’s long-awaited sophomore album, and we’ve already heard a whole pile of tracks from it. “Jaded,” the single that they’ve shared this morning, is one of the album’s few songs without a prominent guest vocalist, but it does have vocals. This time around, they come from Disclosure’s own Howard Lawrence, who sounds a whole lot like the sort of guest singer Disclosure might use. It’s a slick, breezy house-pop track like most of the other Caracal singles. The new music video completes a trilogy that started with Disclosure’s “Holding On” video and continued with their clip for the Sam Smith collab “Omen.” Like those two, it takes place in some futuristic dystopia where old, powerful white men aim to keep down the spirit of the kids. In this one, we see the aftermath of the raid on the rave in “Omen.” A hypnotist interrogates the woman who played the lead in that video, and the strategy backfires on him.
