Alice Glass has shared a new single from her debut solo album PREY//IV, which was scheduled to be released today. The album — one of Exclaim!'s most anticipated releases of 2022 — will now arrive February 16 via the artist's own Eating Glass Records.

In the meantime, Glass has shared "LOVE IS VIOLENCE" alongside a gory new music video directed by Bryan M. Ferguson and starring Anna Acquroff and Jack Leggat.

The artist said of the track:

Almost everyone can relate to the sometimes unbearable ups and downs that occur in relationships. But for those of us who have dealt with manipulative or toxic partners, there is a whole other layer of pain. Any person who uses their partner's "love" to control, use, and hurt them is using one of the most cruel and disgusting manipulative tactics in human experience. Disguising power struggles and calling it 'Love' it's a form of violence against a partner. I want to help people to see those red flags and encourage them to remove themselves from those types of toxic situations.

The song comes following the release of album cuts "SUFFER AND SWALLOW," "FAIR GAME," "BABY TEETH" and "I TRUSTED YOU."
