LCD Soundsystem’s “Drunk Girls” – the Spike Jonze video!   21/04/10

James Murphy + Spike Jonze. It was an inevitable and long overdue combination of musical + directorial talent. What wasn’t inevitable however, was a cohort of Evil (and possibly drunk) Panduhs crash-tackling Murphy, pimping him up in a mini-dress and makeup, and binding him to his compatriots with duct tape. Once you’ve had the wits [...]
