Now, Now – “MJ” Video

Now, Now – “MJ” Video

Earlier this year, Now, Now released their excellent third album, Saved, and today advance single “MJ” is getting a music video. It’s a whole band affair, at least behind-the-camera: KC Dalager co-directed the video alongside Alexa San Román and Brad Hale taught himself some computer animation to contribute.

Dalager takes the lead in front of the lens, though, playing a stressed-out character with a dark secret. We see her running a lot, through the forest or dark suburban streets; she buries something and then drags a shovel behind her determinedly. She’s contacted by someone via instant messenger, who knows what she did. The video’s coda takes place after the song is over, a tower of surrealist imagery soundtracked by some terrifying dark ambience.

Watch below.
