PIXIES release video for \’Tenement Song\’

\"Pixies-2016\"

The music video for \”Tenement Song\” makes is bow today as the first music video for the Pixies\’ upcoming album Head Carrier, due out September 30 (Pixiesmusic/Play It Again Sam)

Taking its influence from the song\’s lyrics and Vaughan Oliver\’s album artwork, the video was conceived and created by the UK/European-based Krank! Collective, and follows a journey through a squalid tenement block on the brink of demolition.  The Krank! team – Neirin Best, Lianne Pierce and Xavier Burrow – created the video using a variety of handmade and digital animation techniques, including old school light box, painted animation, rotoscoping and digital compositing.
