Pop-music-agitator Dorian Electra (pronouns: they/them/theirs) has reemerged to share a new song and video. "Give Great Thanks," an atypical love song describing the pleasures of submitting yourself to objectification, is a distorted and deconstructed 80’s-pop-influenced ballad written by Dorian Electra with production from Socialchair, umru and Clarence Clarity. The track receives an equally distorted video directed by Weston Allen and Electra themselves that captures the song's tone through shadowy, lo-fi footage and stark lighting.

At the top of the week, Dorian's socials went dark. Reemerging only to tease out a trail of digital clues, that led followers to embark on a digital scavenger hunt that took place across the globe, interweaving between the digital and physical world, leading fans to the reveal of a new music video for “Give Great Thanks.” Starring in the video is a darker and more vulnerable side of Dorian, dawning a heart shaped locket, ending a week of tantric build into the unveiling of a new era of Dorian Electra.

Only 199 made, each lock is engraved with Dorian’s name and Dorian will be personally keeping the key to each lock pendant, all 199 of them, worn on a necklace they’ll wear near to their heart.
