Prior to embarking on their UK tour next week, Landshapes release their new single 'Insomniacs Club' on Bella Union.
Accompanying the single is the eerie new video (see below) directed by Ian Pons Jewell. A mix of live footage and stop-frame animation cut together from the unnerving and darkly comic short film 1/4” fits together perfectly with the song.
"We watched his short horror film "1/4 inch", and thought it went incredibly well with the song, synching almost perfectly even before Ian took it in for a re-edit," say Landshapes. "We wanted to have a video that fitted with the jittery pace of Insomaniacs Club, and also something haunting that would render the watcher unable to sleep ... this gruesome nightmare that follows a girl collecting sounds is perfect, the edit condensing the story and following the change in atmosphere through the song, they were made for each other!"
Landshapes begin their tour in Brighton next week.
