This DVD features the promo work of Chris Cunningham, probably best known for the Aphex Twin videos. His work is dark and unsettling, but also contains a strange beauty. Being a big horror film fan from an early age I thought I'd grown immune to images on the screen, but some of this work is truly warped and I would advise anyone who likes their viewing to be unnerving to give this a go. Just be prepared for it to get inside your head...Having said that - it's not all dread and unease. His Bjork, Portishead & Madonna videos all have a hauntingly beautiful quality the likes of which you will not have seen before. My only criticism of the DVD is that it can get a bit samey watching them all together. Best dipped in and out of rather than as a solid watch.
Quite simply stunning, if this guy made film I would be the first in queue to watch. The visuals are dark and disturbing and feel like music videos made by David Lynch. The raw energy that comes from the like of window licker and Afrika shox is like a shot of adrenalin to the heart.
I wish there was more to see and can only hope Volume 2 comes out very soon.
