Lust For Youth will release their upcoming LP Compassion on March 18th via Sacred Bones. Today we check out the band’s new video for their track “Sudden Ambitions” directed by Frederik Valentin. Discussing the video with V Magazine, Valentin explains:
“Everything was filmed in our local neighborhood, Amager, Copenhagen. It’s a quiet place, no fancy cafes or shops near the airport, but far away from the world.”
Using a casual, hand-held style reminiscent of old home movies, Valentin’s far flung footage collages together shots of swimmers in a pool, seagulls and swans, as well as the band walking along the frozen beaches of Amager; but the most haunting is that of a masked boy on a hoverboard, turning mindless circles in a room of projected, flickering imagery.
