A bit of horror and the occult suits the season. If you’re looking for it in music cinema, you can’t do much better than the video for Swallow Me Whole, the new single from Elodie Gervaise. A stylistic smokeshow, it’s more than shock value. It’s a dystopian gothic punk love fest. The images both tantalize and crawl. It challenges your concept of desire. A new temptation mixed with the dark arts. Get witchy.
The video for Take Me To The Water is a triumph. It presents like a short film. It honors the brilliance heard in the new single from Maven Grace. What happens when the glitter collides with the mundane. The experience is more familiar than you presumed. See what normal looks like. There’s something charming about this strung out stroll. Everyone is weird. Everyone is normal. Everyone is Everyone.
There’s still not enough in the music video canon to represent the gay experience. The movement has a hero in roger weeks. His new single Caught In The Chaos brings romance and heartbreak that’s often reserved for a straight audience. We’re grateful for this work. It’s also a catchy upbeat indie folk indie pop blend. Get into it.
We adore the classic collage animation seen in the video for Wild Winds, the new single from Sons of Town Hall. They’re not the first to do it, but they do it well. It recalls Sgt Peppers and the Monty Python canon. They honor that influence by adding their own signature details to this style. The songs an intriguing indie folk jam too. Flow with it.
Just some classic nostalgic charm is all thats needed to nail the artist portrait seen in Hey, the new music video from Mt Misery. An effective power pop single that lands authentic, the band gives you something more on this convincing throwback. Channeling the legacy of late night US TV, the UK import finds themselves as the feature on Late With Johnny Manhattan. From the thrift store sweaters to the classic guitars, everything is in its right place on this fun release.
