It is accompanied with a video by Sam Wiehl and art directed by Barnes, produced and creatively directed by Barnes' new experimental creative studio Dense Truth.
"Raw Language is the most direct song on the album, and moves into the light a lot more than some of the other tracks" says Matthew of the 'Compassion' cut. "I wanted to echo that in the video, bringing in colour, texture and surreal warmth".
