Mitski has unveiled her visuals for latest single "Your Best American Girl", the first track from upcoming LP Puberty 2.
Zia Anger directs the clip. When the song first appeared, Mitski explained the themes: “I wanted to use those white-American-guy stereotypes as a Japanese girl who can't fit in, who can never be an 'American girl'.”
Puberty 2 is out 17 June via Dead Oceans. It follows 2014's Bury Me At Makeout Creek.
