The Maccabees lament a "loss of character" in their "Spit It Out" video
The Maccabees have shared their video for "Spit It Out", a fabulous cut from recent record Marks To Prove It.
This is the third and final segment of their Joseph Connor-directed video triology.
Speaking about the "Spit It Out" clip, Connor says:
“The footpaths under the Elephant and Castle roundabout were adorned with the most stunning, colourful and odd mural paintings. Each day commuters passed these, enveloped by the artwork, they were something unique, something characterful, an important part of the community. All this has now gone. The current regeneration of the area left no place for the footpaths and as such the murals were deemed surplus to requirement. What is replacing them will no doubt be more functional but will it be as fun, as unique, as characterful? I feel that this video is therefore ultimately about loss, a loss of character, a loss of distinctiveness. It's not necessarily condemning the future of the area but merely looking at what was there and recognising its fantastic individuality something which is not as cherished in London anymore.”
Marks To Prove It is out now via Fiction.
