Music videos are something of an oddity. It used to be that
MTV would be the home to these strange mixtures of sight and sound, but that is
no longer the case. Instead the internet is now the home of all things video
and this is where the media now belongs, just ask the guy who made GANGNAM STYLE. That brings us to a very new video from the
musical group The Neighbourhood,
who have a video that just came out called Let
It Go.
The band’s style of music is a dark kind of hip hop that is filled
with tight hooks that could induce some involuntary humming down the road. The
song Let It Go features a very satisfying
main background percussion that brings an energetic pace to an otherwise
serious song. The video features a possibly bipolar homemaker who seems
discontent with her suburban life and views her husband and their friends as materialistic
frauds. Or is it's supposed to be in the style of a Soviet era propaganda film, depicting the capitalist pigs gorging
on all of the money they really don’t need. So, that begs the question are the
five members of this band COMMIES or just a talented group we will be hearing a lot more of in the future? Most people would go with the latter, but watch the video and decide for yourselves.
