Editor’s Note: Welcome to Quarantainment, Vanyaland’s new series on what to watch, what to hear, and how to deal as the world engages in social distancing to combat the spread of coronavirus, or COVID-19. We’re all at home, we’re all online, and we’re all in this together. #StayTheFHome


Not too long ago we hyped Wallows‘ groovy new single “OK”, the alt-pop band’s first new dose of music in 2020 and follow-up to last year’s fantastic Nothing Happens record. This week the dudes are back with a new video for the track, and the Dillon Dowdell-directed clip takes us out on an adventure time escapade colored in ’90s-nostalgia.

It adds a new perspective to the track itself, which Wallows describes as “a song about insecurities in a relationship; having a hard time accepting something that feels ‘too good to be true,’ but overall learning to embrace it and accept the love you’re receiving and focusing on returning it… no matter where we are or how alone and lost we feel right now, we can get up again and try to feel OK. We’re in it together.”
