SUN RAWB's video: DESTROYER - Crimson Tide @ Club Congress 2 24 2020

David Galloway, esteemed art-house filmmaker, describes his vision for the song’s video in an October 2019 interview with Paste: With ‘Crimson Tide,’ Destroyer introduces listeners to yet another version of the [Dan Bejar] Enigma and ushers viewers to seats in an alternate cinematic universe. The dramatic music video that ties in to film is a lost art. Or maybe it’s just a vulgar one. Either way, there are no rotten tomatoes here. Only rotten apples. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mFTgJQtCPk I was like the laziest river A vulture predisposed to eating off floors No wait, I take that back I was more like an ocean Stuck inside hospital corridors My condition in general Despite what they say, improves So I could care less on a night like this I'm on the lookout for anything that moves Crimson tide I know when to hold 'em And I know when to leave I know where to go And I know how to breathe I know how you blow bubbles You can look at the world 'Til you don't know what you done You can follow a salary to the bottom of the ocean Is that yours? Throw it in the pot I thought I was smart, I'm not I thought I was sick and dying Chicken-shit singers paying their dues A circus mongrel sniffing for clues You watch the blonde make mincemeat of the brunette An actress pays her debt To Satan again and again I say it, I don't know, just 'cause A child coos sweet nothings to a box of fuzz He's not a child, he's twenty-five He's never felt so alive, crimson tide One more dead rich runaway, who gives a shit? Must be nice, must be the rain When lightning strikes twice The funeral goes completely insane The funeral's insane The funeral's insane The funeral's insane Vicious stampede, a vile promenade But in china teacups, two fools find love Back at Hotel Paral·lel, hysteria, I can feel it She says "Get into the zone," the zone is brimstone and wire You open your mouth to watch your teeth shudder At the mirror, at the clutter Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide Crimson tide
