Yesterday might have been Halloween, however, nothing that happened on October 31st creeped us out like Feist’s video for “Graveyard,” the latest single from last year’s Metals album.
When we say that this video is eerie, we mean it.
The video is just one shot of the singer and her band performing. While this is happening, strange supernatural occurrences happen, with birds and dudes popping up out of nowhere.
DETAILS: Feist Announces World Tour
We’re not really doing the video any justice by the way we’re describing it. Here’s what Feist herself told Pitchfork:
“I’m not talking about the Graveyard as a location, but of the entangled thoughts you get when visiting a graveyard. Usually you’re there to visit someone who’s died, and you think in broad terms about what they’ve become and your own mortality and about what time means. We’re alone in the field, always at a distance. And people appear and disappear from your life.
Grief comes in the form of much larger thoughts; it’s more philosophical and it leads to a confused state of mind. You don’t get those thoughts from checking your emails! It’s a pullback from details and it’s grand and isolating.”
Uh, yeah, that’s what we meant to say.
Check out the video for “Graveyard,” only if you dare!
