We’ve gone on about this one a few times — the new Jonathan Glazer (“Sexy Beast”) directed short film/video for Dead Weather’s new single — and it debuted on Cinemax this weekend, but we gotta say, the anticipation build-up was better than the real thing. This is a bit of a let down. As Vulture writes, the clip features, “Alison Mosshart (day job: singing for the Kills) walk toward [Jack White of the White Stripes], unloading automatic weapons into each other’s faces and chests in what’s almost certainly meant to be some sort of metaphor about relationships or something.” Meh, the track isn’t all that either.
Maybe there’s a long version out there, “Thriller” style that’s more interesting… Also does this song become a hip-hop jam by the end? Not feeling it at all.
