Watch: Benjamin Yellowitz - "Ash Wednesday" [Premiere]

13 April 2015, 17:00 | Written by Laurence Day

British singer-songwriter Benjamin Yellowitz is sharing the video for new single "Ash Wednesday" and has released it for free download.

The cut begins a slow-burning pop ballad with flecks of Bastille before slowly contorting into a deathly Gothic sidewinder. There's a subtle funk to his gruff acoustic turns, and a sense of industrial swagger; essentially, boiled down, Yellowitz presents a glowering stripped-back desert funk tune - think Queens Of The Stone Age meets Pharrell.

The video, a harrowing blend of demonic rituals and warped horror movie tropes, highlights every flicker of darkness in his voice.

The Benjamin Yellowitz EP is out 27 April.

Watch the video for "Ash Wednesday" below, and then download the track for free afterwards.
