Blonde Redhead – “Dripping” Video (Dir. Eric Wareheim) (NSFW)
Two years ago, veteran New York guitar-clang sensualists Blonde Redhead released their Barragán album, and they’ve already made their own video for the muted, propulsive “Dripping,” probably the album’s best song. But Eric Wareheim figured he could do better. The alt-comedy figurehead just shared his own video for the song, with this description: “Dripping is a loveletter to my favorite band of all time (Blonde Redhead) based on my favorite Face Sitting artist of all time. (Namio Harukawa).” And even if you’ve read that description, it’s still a pretty surprising video. Mostly, it’s a series of worshipful shots of women smoking, drinking whiskey, putting on makeup, or delicately pruning bushes. Then, Wareheim’s cameras pull back, and you see what NSFW things are really going on. Watch it below.
Barragán is out now on Kobalt.
