Watch the very NSFW new video for Arca's "Xen"

17 November 2014, 17:28 | Written by Laurence Day

Arca - AKA Venezuelan knob-twiddler Alejandro Ghersi - has dropped his new video for recent LP title track, "Xen".

Following a similar, if considerably more jarring, vein to the "Thievery" visuals, the new Jesse Kanda (FKA Twigs) video sees the in-demand producer soundtrack a strobe-y, tormented fever dream. It looks like Chris Cunningham's night terrors.

In our recent 8.5/10 review of Arca's debut record, we said:

"The LP is like being whisked away to a psychological netherworld with no respite or hope of escape; it forces you to grapple with your own sanity. Not many records can worm their way into your mind so successfully – this is abyssal electronica with a tormented bent and visions of nowt but pitch black pits of despair."

Watch the unsettling, NSFW clip below.
