O'Connor Hartnett directs a punchy promo to herald the return of blues-rock outfit White Denim. The video for Lock And Key presents the band's frontman James Petralli in a studio recording the track, intermittently glitching into a skeleton, then subsequently flipping into an array of other avatar-characters. Tinged with absurdism and a feelgood vibe, it's a deceptively simple concept mixing old school performance with accessible VFX and executed to perfection.

Peaches is back. And the incomparable musician, producer and performance artist is on a mission to save the world through sexual pleasure - in Matt Lambert's uninhibited madcap sex comedy for the title track from her forthcoming album.Produced in collaboration with indie erotic filmmaker Erika Lust, and featuring performers and icons from the Berlin underground and Queer community, the video for No Lube So Rude sees Peaches in her formidable glory as the leader of the defenders of great, well-lubricated sex.It's a cartoonish, raw and brazen showcase for the indominatible artist, giving appropriate licence for Peaches' outrageousness and theatricality with a nod to those totems of indie queer cinema, Derek Jarman and John Waters - as well as Tank Girl and Wilhelm Reich’s writing on sexual revolution. Filmed on location at the Queer Wagen Collective Marzipan on the outskirts of wintry Berlin and choreographed by Constanza Macras - the choreographer behind the stand-out moments of films such as Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things and The Favourite - the video asserts Peaches' mantra that sexual repression as a root of fascism and orgasm as the antidote.The serious point here is how Peaches, Lambert and Lust insist on explicit pleasure as a political act of resistance to repression. So it's timely. And if you are so inclined there is an extended explicit cut is available on ERIKALUST.com. In which case, you may need a bigger tube...

Charlie Sarsfield resumes his long collaboration with Yungblud on this notable reworking of the track from his Grammy-nominated album Idols, featuring rock legends Smashing Pumpkins.Sarsfield's new video for Zombie - he also directed the first one for Dom Harrison aka Yungblud's hit that features Florence Pugh - pays homage to the golden era of rock videos, set in a snowy graveyard with Dom, and Pumpkins lead singer Billy Corgan centre-stage.The design of the set was informed by Yungblud’s personal experience while touring in Lithuania, where a hillside of crosses inspired the snowy graveyard aesthetic. This, paired with the intensity of live performance and the measured pacing of the video, ensures that every visual element reinforces the emotional storytelling. “Working with Dom has become a creative partnership built on trust and shared vision," explains Sarsfield. "Every decision, from location to wardrobe to the energy in the vocals, was about turning raw emotion into cinematic form."Being supported by Untold Studios gave us the freedom to explore that fully, shaping a visual experience that feels alive, immediate, and human.”

A year after the release of the 50th anniversary edition of George Harrison's album Living In The Material World, a lovely stop-motion animated video has been released for the album's standout track - directed by Stranger Things actor Finn Wolfhard.The first ever video for Harrison's Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth) finds George tending his garden and enjoying a magical trip with a quartet of mischievous gnomes who magically come to life. It's based on George's time in the early post-Beatles period in the early 1970s when he was living at Friar Park and was enjoying gardening as well as pursuing a solo musical career.In the just-released BTS film about the making of the video, Wolfhard explains that he storyboarded the video, "but I'm not the one moving everything." That would indeed be surprising, as he's presumably been very busy acting in the final season of Stranger Things - and he's also a musician. The labour intensive work of stop motion was actually done by the teams at Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth) and Ty Down Pictures, under animation director Akash Jones.“Finn is one of the sweetest and most talented people I know of his generation, and he is the perfect person to direct a video for my dad,” says Dhani Harrison, who exec produced the video with David Zonshine, has said in a release. “My dad would have loved this, and I hope his wonderful, creative, heartfelt ideas help this song reach another generation.”And although it's not a Christmas song or a Christmas-themed video - with it's heartfelt message, the release could hardly be more timely.
