Kim Dracula 'Drown' by James Chappell

Rob Ulitski - 24th Nov 2022

James Chappell directs an explosive promo for Australian alternative artist Kim Dracula. 

Starting on an aeroplane mid-flight, we see the artist take a seat as other passengers start looking nervous when the flight starts getting bumpy. When the plane implodes in a ball of flames, Dracula is one of the only survivors. 

Boasting Nineties alternative and Noughties emo inspiration in every scene, the video cycles through a series of slick, surreal vignettes, exuding an absurd yet utterly captivating vibe throughout.

It's a rip-roaring introduction to the artist - for those who may not already be familiar.
