videoFinn Askew 'Tokyo' by Elliott Gonzo
A super-stylish girl gang kidnap a helpless Finn Askew, in Elliott Gonzo's glossy promo for Tokyo. Marking the release of the artist's latest EP, the video balances a sense of nostalgia with a futuristic aesthetic, as the gang take him via limousine to an unspecified location, for the performance of a lifetime. It's a grungy, cinematic affair, built around a simple yet very effective premise. The art direction and styling are the standout stars of the show, creating a vision that falls somewhere between real life and an angsty superhero film.
