Video: The Rip Tide

The title track from Beirut’s latest album, The Rip Tide (Pompeii), is big and beautiful, yet it's also somehow otherworldly. Is it the music smoothly sliding from high to low? The ethereal group vocals floating above the entire song? It’s hard to say, but the new clip undeniably captures the essence of it. With a lone, unmanned [...]

Video’s Of The Week (July 2012, Week 3)

For the first minute or so, the Houmam Abdallah-directed music video for Beirut 's "The Rip Tide" features a ship gliding languorously, moving along to the rhythm of the one of the best tracks off Beirut's album from 2011. But then just a little before the 3:00 mark, inky clouds descend to serve as a surreal backdrop and create a rainbow-filled sky for the little ship that could. Zach Condon, who records under the moniker Beirut, was especially pleased with Abdallah's direction and shares, "The concept fit, and the product brought the song somewhere that I had [...]

More often than not, today’s music videos have absolutely nothing to do with their auditory inspiration. Rather than acting as a subservient mercenary, these visual aids rule over the Kingdom of Non-Sequitur with a haughty pride and an army of Richard James’s leering face . Only very rarely does a music video capture the true quintessence of the song for which it is, allegedly, created as a counterpart. For all you readers out there who have grown accustomed to the irrelevance pervading the industry, brace yourself for the synestheziure-inducing new video for Beirut ’s “The Rip [...]

Já há vídeo para música que dá título ao último álbum de Beirut , "The Rip Tide". De relembrar que o disco The Rip Tide está nas lojas desde o ano passado e que a banda esteve cá em 2011 no Super Bock Super Rock a apresentá-lo, num concerto que graças às más condições sonoras, esteve muito abaixo das expectativas. No clip vemos um barco a percorrer um sinuoso e revolto mar, num espectáculo visual no mínimo fascinante. Sei que parece cliché, mas esperava ver a banda na embarcação. Só para dizer que são eles.

Beirut mastermind Zach Condon’s songs are often strikingly visual – not only do Condon’s lyrics summon up filmic narratives, the music itself often seems to tell a story, too. According to Condon , “The Rip Tide,” the title track from his 2011 record, seemed incomplete – until director Houmam Abdallah created this incredibly beautiful video that works perfectly as a visual accompanient to the song’s swelling strings and horns. We won’t spoil the ending for you, but we love the colors. Check it out. Continue reading: Video: Beirut [...]
