Beach House release video for Black Car single

Alistair Legrand has directed the video for Beach House‘s single Black Car.

The track features on the band’s 7 album, which has live dates in the UK at London’s Troxy venue and the Manchester Albert Hall lined up for October.

“Perhaps the relatively large amount of background information that comes with 7 is a distraction, altering the observation point from the slightly voyeuristic position that LaGrande and Scully’s music is usually consumed,” our review reads.

“At a purely superficial level they’re still great after all, as the perfect synth loops definitively make the bad stuff go away, or on Lose Your Smile in its recollection of a slightly more wasted Sarah Cracknell, or the Europhile art-trips of Stereolab.”

“Certainly, its apex is one of those songs which reeks of transposition, as on the sluggish bliss of Drunk In LA you wished you were somewhere in Highland Park staring over the top of a Mai Tai at a stranger and their intriguing jawline, whispering about love, the moon and soft sidewalk blues.”
