So good! WATCH The Afghan Whigs’ stunning new occult style video for “Oriole” taken from their forthcoming release ‘In Spades’ (release date: May 5, 2017 on Sub Pop Records).
Afghan Whigs’ official (NSFW) video for “Oriole”, a standout track from In Spades, has just debuted! The provocative clip was helmed by erotic art director Amy Nicole Hood.
On the one hand, In Spades is as quintessentially Afghan Whigs as anything the group has ever done – fulfilling its original mandate to explore the missing link between howling Midwestern punk like Die Kreuzen and Hüsker Dü, The Temptations’ psychedelic soul symphonies, and the expansive hard rock tapestries of Led Zeppelin and Lynyrd Skynyrd. At the same time, this new record continues to push beyond anything in the Whigs’ previous repertoire – another trademark, along with the explosive group dynamic captured on the recording.
