Is there any better way to say Happy All Hallows Eve than The Body? Doubt it. If you’re lookin’ to scare the kiddies in the hood tonight, or rev yourself up for a little Devil’s Night mayhem, the band’s new LP on Thrill Jockey, Christs, Redeemers, will surely do the trick!! Today the infernal duo released a new video for their track “Shrouded“, and like their previous cryptic offering for “An Altar Or A Grave“, this one is also directed by Richard Rankin. Lock up your black cat and take cover, ’cause in “Shrouded” The Body loads up their assault rifles for a little neighborhood target practice. Playing out like some Patty Hearst splatter flick, Rankin uses grainy surveillance footage, and a mysterious group of actors engaged in an indetermanent armed conflict, to make this seem like some kind of Symbionese Liberation Army snuff film.
