Ice

Background
The song is based on the novel 'Ice' by Anna Kavan, which is set in a frozen post-nuclear fallout dystopia, where ice is slowing taking over the planet. Although beautiful, it is deadly.

The characters in the novel are never named, as are those in the song, except for the mention of 'Anna' which could be Whoo's name for the girl or a reference to the author. The story focuses around a girl, slowly dying; and a boy, her master. The girl has suffered under the boy's control, she is bullied and weakened since childhood. The girl is powerless.

Within the book, the narrator says: "the disintegration could be observed. She grew thinner and paler, more transparent, ghostlike. It was interesting to watch" This is the focus of the ghostly white art in the PV. The song slowly depicts her death, as well as some thoughts on the 'ice'.
