Grimes leads a cyberpunk gang to a blood-rave in her "Kill V. Maim" video
Grimes, aka Claire Boucher, has cut the ribbon on her new self-directed vid for "Kill V. Maim".
Mac Boucher has co-directed the vid, which also features animations from Grimes.
The track features on the Canadian producer's haywire pop LP Art Angels, alongside "Flesh Without Blood", which has a similarly vicious video, and we described it as "the biggest leap into Boucher's fascinating imagination, here posed as Al Pacino’s The Godfather: Part II character (though in this case a vampire-mobster). "
Art Angels is out now on 4AD.
