Melbourne-based emo-punk quartet Bukowski have today revealed a hypnotic accompanying video for their new single ‘elevator song’ – filmed by Travis Suttie, and edited by Travis and James Dominko.
Shot in the band’s warehouse, the DIY-styled music video shows the members of Bukowski performing the track, while nostalgic home videos play on the surrounding newspaper-covered walls. Featuring quick cut transitioning and sentimental childhood projections, the sincerity of the video is a gesture to the song’s tender message.
Lead singer James “Bassy” Karagiozis talks about the concept behind the video for ‘elevator song’:
“The clip is a single angle performance clip with a projection of memories from our respective childhoods playing over us. It took us about 3 hours to newspaper all the walls of the warehouse, so the projection had some texture to play off.”
