To celebrate the release of their debut album ‘Kill the One You Love,’ GEMS have shared their first official video for Soak. Watch it below via YouTube.
Directors WACHO write, “The film portrays a young couples relationship mutating/deteriorating through different scenarios. What holds them together is what is making them fall apart. This destructive impulse will be personified as a menacing force, external to the couple, materialized in nature, faceless characters, darkness and confined spaces. The external force is the fear of: loneliness – the unknown – loosing identity – the void. The contradiction: pure/destructive – together/apart – light/darkness – dream/nightmare – real/surreal. Asphyxia. Sensuality.”
GEMS is the duo of Lindsay Pitts and Clifford John Usher. Their debut album, ‘Kill the One You Love,’ is out now via Carpark Records and indulges in evocative shadow pop, balancing gauzy atmospherics with an emotional heft that explores existential longing and raw human truths.
