Obscured human images, the destructive grind of a circle saw, splintered wood, sparks; these are the tools of the trade
Small Black choose to handle in this, their video for "Bad Lover". The result is something that looks a little early semester art school, but paired with lyrics like "Lay down your wild hands if you are not in love", there is plenty of room for artistic interpretation. Our take? With the masked subjects of this video projected on wood that eventually meets the fate of the saw, the band hint at loveless beings being nothing more than saw dust in the wind, man. Whoa... -
