The clip was shot a mere 12 days ago in New York by director Dominic DeJoseph (REM, Dandy Warhols, The Stills) at a new private writers and artists club called The Oracle. The cast of “Sympathies”includes local New York-based artists, comedians and musicians including photographer Kelsey Bennett and her sister, actor Remy Bennett, both of whom happen to be granddaughters of singer Tony Bennett. Of the clip’s stark imagery, DeJoseph says, “The image of Michaellying on his back singing while others lie down next to him occurred to me as the choral section came in the first time I heard the song. I didn’t want to see an actual chorus singing, but this image seemed to create a similar effect of togetherness.” According to Levasseur, “Sympathies” was written as an attempt at illustrating the plasticity of the relationships we have with the objects that make up our personal environment. The “things that we adore” referred to in the song point to our obsessions with cultural icons (t-shirts of Ché, postcards with radioactivity symbols, stock footage of the A-bomb, etc.), as well as old love letters, sentimental jewelry or other near and dear objects that we use as a touchstones in our personal narrative. Levasseur explains, “I think this idea has fascinated me for a long time and the ways in which it affects my own relationships with the objects and people that I choose to surround myself with are thoroughly pervasive yet difficult to pin down.” Michael The Blind’s latest album Are’s & Els will be released by Alder Street Records on June 5th.

It's a total charmer." - Black Book Seattle-based duo Luxhas revealed the video for “The Window”from its debut album We Are Not The Same. The clip, inspired by Lux’s favorite David Lynchand Tim Burton movies, was initially planned to be fully animated, but now stars the band’s Leah Rosen and David Chandler (Rosen also directed the clip.) Woody Allen was an inspiration as well. “The first scene is inspired by ‘Midnight In Paris,’ the latest Woody flick that we watched and loved,” says Rosen. The video is a visual representation of the abnormal sleep paralysis and hypnogogic hallucinations that afflict Rosen. She explains, “With my disorder, sometimes I'll wake up, but I'll still be physically paralyzed, which causes the hypnotic hallucinations. These hallucinations usually consist of me trying to turn on the bedroom light or screaming for someone to wake me up. All I want to do is wake up, but I can’t.” This kind of unique perspective has endeared new fans to Lux since its formation in early 2010. The band’s sound, inspired by some of the most essential artists of the era of indie and underground music (Pavement, The Velvet Underground, Sonic Youth, The Magnetic Fields, The Jesus & Mary Chain, New Order, Blondie), features Rosen and Chandler trading off vocals, guitars, synths and drum programming. In addition to recent coverage from Black Book and a nod for “The Window” as KEXP’s “Song of The Day,”fans can look for Lux featured in the upcoming June issue of MAGNETmagazine. We Are Not The Same, the debut album by Lux is out now. Leah Rosen and David Chandler of Lux are available for interviews.
