One of our favourite photographer’s (Phil Sharp) has hopped into the world of music video-making and has come up with this new video for one or our favourite bands (Stricken City).
Phil is the man responsible for our Erol Alkan cover, and our Bat For Lashes issue. In our current issue he shot Liars, and in next month’s issue the cover feature is all his too. When he’s not taking pictures of bands, Phil can be found in shoe museums north of London.
As for Stricken City, they’re the band that others should emulate more. They released their debut mini album last year, called ‘Songs About People I Know’, and if you’re going to SXSW you’ll see them there, playing angular indie that dances all over Bow Wow Wow and The Slits. They’re good.
So there you have it, enjoy the video [below]…
