Following their hypnotic debut 'Lemon', Oxford five-piece Maiians create an equal with 'One Of Each', taken from their debut EP 'Tokyo', released on Oxford label Idiot King last November.
The video, conceived and filmed by Maiians' member Sam King, perfectly aligns with the building intensity of the track, a visual feast of abstract images, human unease and paranoia that calls to mind the pitch-black humour of Charlie Brooker's Black Mirror.
Sam: "We wanted the video to mirror the energy of the song; slow building, moving up piece by piece over time. There's something slightly disorienting about the track, and I liked the idea of the visuals being quite abstract and sinister - people can interpret the 'chasers' to be whatever they want."
Maiians play their first London headline at the Sebright Arms on January 19, with support from Mountain Range and Forced Random.
