<\/div>\n

Detroit indie rocker Stef Chura<\/a> has released the fourth and final single to her sophomore album Midnight<\/em>, which will be released this Friday. The video features Chura in a cheerleader uniform, playing her guitar in a school gym. \u201cDreaming of\/Being nice\/I projected you on a screen,\u201d she sings against the song\u2019s opening riff. She sinks into the chorus, repeating over and over, \u201cIf only you could hear me scream.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Chura, \u201cScream\u201d is \u201cpartly about the loneliness of social media. How being popular online doesn\u2019t equate to feeling whole in your real life, projecting a persona of an ideal \u2018you\u2019 online.\u201d Chura also adds that it was written from the perspective of someone else. \u201cIt\u2019s about the dual self: a person who thinks of themselves in one way vs. how they actually are and treat others, which is totally unlike how they view themselves,\u201d she said in a statement. \u201cA blind spot, because how they treat others is a reflection of their loneliness and anger. It can leave them acting nasty, mean and like a bully to the people in their life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Carseat Headrest\u2019s Will Toledo, who produced Midnight<\/em>, also plays bass on the track. Chura will spend the summer touring in support of the album, making a stop at Rough Trade in Brooklyn on July 12th and wrapping up at Milwaukee\u2019s Backroom at Colectivo on August 10th.<\/p>\n
