Watch Moon Duo’s “Cold Fear” Video:
Moon Duo‘s “Cold Fear” video premiered this past Saturday night on Adult Swim. The new visuals feature animations from illustrator/musician Micah Buzan. Moon Duo calls it, “Cold Fear for cold times”, and they ain’t lyin’. The video opens on a chaotic cityscape that resembles Blade Runner’s urban nightmare. Before long, though, we descend into the bowels of the place where we meet a legion of googly-eyed tyrants torturing the unfortunate beings trapped in these lower realms. Moon Duo’s Ripley Johnson and Sanae Yamada star here as a yin/yang pair tasked with freeing those held captive. Everything comes to a head, though, at a banquet table presided over by these monsters drinking goblets of blood, and the duo soon finds themselves in trouble when they become the main course for this cabal of evil cannibals. Cold fear, indeed. But don’t worry, this video is “To Be Continued”, and I have a hunch our heroes find a way out of this mess. I hope!
You can find “Cold Fear” on Moon Duo’s upcoming LP Occult Architecture Vol. 1, due out February 3rd via Sacred Bones. Part of a two volume collection, with the second volume set for release later in 2017, Occult Architecture is influenced by, “the harmonious duality of…light and dark energies through the Chinese theory of Yin and Yang.” Because of that, this first volume will come out “in the heart of winter in the Northern Hemisphere.” Presumably, that also means we can look forward to the second volume this coming Spring. While you’re at it, give Moon Duo’s “Creepin'” track a listen.
