From John Grant's new album Grey Tickles, Black Pressure set for release October 2nd.
Directed by David Wilson, the video is set in a sweaty gay sauna with Grant surrounded by men and other distractions.
Wilson said this about the concept (via Vice):
“The idea for the promo came very clearly to me. I pitched the idea of John being surrounded by men and objects that would be temptations or distractions from a monogamous relationship.
"This concept then developed into the camera becoming distracted by these temptations, and for John to be steadfast: addressing the viewer, often appearing, as if by magic at the beginning and end of long, flowing camera moves. It’s been fun to treat the camera as an entity in itself: not quite a person, more a point-of-view that continually veers away from John and go down a rabbit hole of a gay sauna.”
Warning - NSFW.
