The band have also shared the video for new single ‘Dragons II” from their sublime new album EELS. Appearing in its demo form on the album, the track was taped on a hand recorder and is unexpected but intuitive, and most importantly, singularly Being Dead. The ‘Dragons II’ video captures Being Dead performing live in a tunnel and showcases what the band says is them “writing the track in their rumpus room.” The video is directed and edited by Alex Winker, shot by Erik Gatlin, recorded and mixed by Will Clark, with titles by Alan “Rickman” Official.
Being Dead’s records are mosaics, technicolor incantations, each song its own self-contained little universe. Something about their music suggests it’s a dispatch from both the future and the past – vocal harmonies that sound like they’re reverberating in a medieval church to surfy guitar lines, weirdo-punky cacophonies erupting into chaos.
