I love the new video for the current single, I L U, by School of Seven Bells. It was directed by Toby Halbrooks and David Lowery. The puppets used in the video remind me a bit on the Paul Toupet’s gloomy mummies.

The David Mullett-directed video for the new School of Seven Bells single, My Cabal, has the band play in an equipment-filled soundstage as a single camera captures the action through a fish-eye lens. The video’s gorgeously saturated colors and disorienting, constantly-shifting camera angle create the sense of watching the band while sitting in a tiny, smoothly calibrated rollercoaster.

In School of Seven Bells’ music, a human element lurks behind a veil of technology and noise. Toby Holbrooks’ video for the Brooklyn trio’s single, Half Asleep, follows suit, depicting twin vocalists, Alejandra and Claudia Deheza, as earthbound beauties, while complicating their image through sped-up film, gauzy overlays, and brightly colored, weather-like disturbances. The clip conjures a sad, surreal feeling that sticks with you long after the images fade. Says Halbrooks of the creative process behind the video: ‘The first thing that popped into our heads was the word lush’. It is indeed a perfectly woozy take on dream-pop, a haze of melting guitars and electronic vapor trails pinned to the Dehezas’ interlocking harmonies.
