Deerhunter - Living My Life
A dedication to Miles Davis.
Deerhunter has released a visual for “Living My Life,” a single off their new album Fading Frontier. Directed by Bradford Cox, the Miles Davis-dedicated video displays the band members chilling in a country town. Cox describes:
…macro meditations on geology and botany to observations of afternoon light filtered onto wooden floors. The idea was to have a formless visual that does not conform to the overwhelming cleverness and narrative ambition of most modern videos. Instead we have a sometimes pointless, sometimes ridiculous, and sometimes hypnotically beautiful mess of images and rhythm. The final section of the video, in particular, could be a teenage garage band take on Tarkovsky’s Solaris. Various chemicals and dyes were used to create a liquid fantasia for the song’s transcendent climax.
Fading Frontier drops on October 16; watch the video above.
