Discussing the new single, Shelf Lives singer Sabrina comments: “Shock Horror is an homage to our worst nightmare of a human. An amalgamation of specific traits that are so transparent yet irresistible, in a way. Everyone has met one or has even been one at some point in their lives. The catch is that this type of person is annoyingly frustrating in that you can't help yourself but feel a little bit sorry for them. They're lost, probably lonely, and super cliché which makes them harmless and so easy to dislike.”
Directed by frequent video collaborators Florence Poppy Deary and Francesca Van Haverbeke (aka FLAN), the "Shock Horror" video follows a simple premise; picking noses.
Speaking on the video, FLAN said: “Picking your nose is an act that everyone does, but no one talks about. It’s the last taboo. And we’re here to lift it. We’re all gross. Shock Horror."
