WARNING: THERE IS NO LESBIAN SEX IN THE NEW ULVER VIDEO
In the new Justin Oakey-directed Ulver video, for a cover of Beau Brummels’ “Magic Hollow,” this dude living in Magic Times is following some map and reading some letter and he comes across these two virginal-looking hotties in the wilderness and they’re smiling at him and whispering to one another and he follows them back to their tent and they give him shit to drink and… fuck, nothing fucking happens. Some rat-looking old dude points at stuff and shit. And then there’s a murder, which I guess is pretty cool. But it’s not why I was watching the video, ya feel?
“Magic Hollow” will be on Ulver’s new album of covers of classic psychedelic songs, Childhood’s End. It comes out June 5.
