KLAXONS Video that creeped out YouTube

November 30th 2010 02:05
KLAXONS UNLEASH NEW
‘TWIN FLAMES’ VIDEO


Klaxons have been the talk of the internet last week after their controversial video for recent single Twin Flames leaked online. Dubbed “an epically disgusting body horror fantasia” by Pitchfork, the video has already notched up a tonne of plays on various YouTube accounts before each being suspended for breaching their rules. See the new NSFW video officially HERE:






Twin Flames is the second single to be lifted from Klaxons acclaimed sophomore album Surfing The Void. Marked with its undeniable hands-in-the-air chorus, Twin Flames is nonsense out of context but gains power as a shared experience.

The new video was directed by long time creative collaborator Saam Farahmand, famed for his groundbreaking creations, explained; “The song is synonymous with the 1989 Brian Yuzna film 'Society', which inspired me as a child and is uncredited as informing some of the art and films we know today. The video is a homage to 'Society.'"


Farahmand was also responsible for the celestial video to ‘Echoes’, the first single from Klaxons’ new album ‘Surfing The Void’, which was released to worldwide acclaim in August.

On working with him again, Klaxons’ Jamie Reynolds said “As ever our director Saam Farahmand has taken what stems from an innocent discussion in regards to the meaning of the song and turned it into a visual playground - his finest work to date.”

Following their whirlwind stint down under earlier this year for a series of east coast showcase gigs, those four horsemen of 2012, Klaxons will return down under this summer for a National run of festival performances over New Years.
