These videos have been released for songs previously featured on the blog:

Ajimal - How Could You Disappear?

Wildwood Kin - All On Me

White Tail Falls - Give It Up, Son

Visualising the track’s evocative subject matter in a montage of surreal and disturbing imagery, the video sees a descent into an otherworldly realm of monstrous creatures that tempt and overcome, creating a warped and powerful visual allegory of addiction. White Tail Falls’ Irwin explains, “The director (and cameraman, editor, grader) Craig Young and I pulled in every favour we could to illustrate a final showdown between the inner demons that have haunted the protagonist of our short-film and the man himself. In support of themes found on the album, we wanted to tell the story of how bad habits can take on a life of their own and follow us, until confronted. “Largely shot in a few hours in Southwark Playhouse, with help from the theatre company Les Enfants Terrible, and around a man-made lake just outside Barcelona, this final chapter in a trilogy boasts shoot locations like a Bond film albeit on a Brookside budget.” The video is the final instalment – but the first to be released – of a three part series exploring the darker implications of our desire for comfort, with the remaining two videos to be released accompanying forthcoming singles. (press release)

Robb Murphy - Afterglow

The Great Dictators - By The Throat (ft. Jamie Stewart)

The Danish indie rock trio The Great Dictators has returned with a breathtaking video for their latest single ‘By The Throat’ featuring Jamie Stewart (Xiu Xiu).

The video is made by renowned Danish photographer Bjørn Rosenquist and artist Auto Slug Lizard Gag. It’s a tribute to and reinterpretation of a sequence in Ingmar Bergman’s ‘Winter Light’ (‘Nattvardsgästerna’) from 1963.

The original sequence is 8 minutes long, shot almost in one take, and it’s a celebration of calm reflection and complex emotions - frustration, hopelessness, empathy and love. Swedish actress Ingrid Thulin played the role in 1963 and this time it’s African Danish model Mawa Abdillahi who pours her heart out.

“Our strange and hectic world could perhaps use a bit of quiet contemplation. This is our contribution together with the exceptional Mawa. We’ve got nothing against fast paced Hollywood flicks, but it’s also nice to devote yourself to an old Bergman classic.” - Auto Slug Lizard Gag (press release)

Mawa Theatre Company is a Shakespeare Witch dust em off ladies it’s ridin’ season shirt . Company with a difference—the UK’s first to be comprised of Black and Black mixed race women. Founded by actors Maisey Bawden, Gabrielle Brooks, Danielle Kassaraté and Jade Samuels, it aims to examine how women of the African diaspora are represented in classical texts, and reframe them for audiences that find them alienating by drawing out themes that continue to resonate. In doing so, their larger goal is to change the industry from within, creating more space for marginalized voices in a field that is all too often dominated by privileged white men. This begins with their first project following the company’s creation in June of this year: a video series entitled “What’s Past is Prologue.” Available to stream for free on Mawa’s YouTube channel from this week, it consists of short Shakespearean monologues and scenes performed to camera by a host of talented Black actors.Witch dust em off ladies it’s ridin’ season shirt, hoodie, sweater, longsleeve and ladies t-shirt Within 20 years, the average global temperature is likely to reach or cross the 1 Witch dust em off ladies it’s ridin’ season shirt .5 degree celsius warming threshold, unless rapid, large-scale action is taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

As a group, we’ve always had conversations about constantly having to bang down the door, especially within classical theatre and its predominantly white spaces led by white men. It needs to be about representation across the board, not just about putting one Black female body into a show and saying that’s our box ticked.
