Junior Boys Share “Big Black Coat” Video, Robert Hood Remix

"Big Black Coat" video

Junior Boys have unveiled the official video for the title track from their new Big Black Coat album along with a heated remix from techno legend Robert Hood. The latter will be available as a limited 12” from Dan Snaith’s Jiaolong imprint soon; in the meantime, here’s the duo’s upcoming tour itinerary with Jessy Lanza and what director Timothy Saccenti had to say about his video treatment:

It evolved from mine and the band’s mutual love for early analog video and experimental film art, industrial techno, and the audio/visual performances of seminal DIY electronic band The Severed Heads. Following the beauty and driving movement of the track, I wanted to create a piece of emotional innocence to run through the grinder of distortion.
