Portishead’s Beth Gibbons has shared a new song, “Reaching Out,” from her forthcoming, debut solo album, Lives Outgrown. It comes with a Weirdcore-directed video in which Gibbons hurtles through digital outer-space. In the interactive version, viewers can drag the cursor to spin the perspective, creating “a sense of trying to reach each other in impossible ways,” a press release explains. Check that out on the song’s website, and watch the static video below.

Gibbons announced Lives Outgrown with the single “Floating on a Moment.” The album arrives May 17. James Ford produced it alongside Gibbons, with additional production from Talk Talk drummer Lee Harris.
