The music video for Teenage Halloween’s combined singles “Supertrans/Takeaway” directed by Jordan Serrano shows vocalist Luk Henderiks living out the the frustrations and reconciliations in the songs themselves that seem to be perfect companions in expressing the struggles many people go through in life whether its the social pressure of gender conformity or generational trauma or genetic health issues making living itself complicated. But the exuberance of the songs in that triumphant yet self-aware and vulnerable modern pop punk and emo style with Henderik’s impassioned and commanding vocals makes these songs irresistible anthems of resistance and personal dignity that ring true whatever your struggles and challenges might be because we’ve all got them and Teenage Halloween is definitely tapped into a collective zeitgeist of this moment.
