EXCLUSIVE NEW VIDEO: Hearts of Palm UK - I Flow

Posted 4/13/2009 2:10 PM by Faith-Ann Young

Tags: synth-pop, new wave, video, electro

 

This new video by the new wave-esque, electro-pop girl band, Hearts of Palm UK, was shot in LA by photog/artist Ian Broyles and set on various green screen backdrops - giving it a DIY film-school feel that is comical and appropriately 80's-esque. We are guessing the pyramids, moon and other significant mystical symbols has something to do with Erica Elektra, the heavily-tatted keyboard player who writes the songs; word is she's an astrology expert and "resident mystic."

PS: The song from I Flow EP (see below) is the first of SIX EP's coming from Hearts of Palm UK's debut album For Life.

Sounds Like:  School of Seven BellsA-Ha (Think "Take On Me"), Goldfrapp, Camera Obscura

This video is a wreck.

To say the video is 'a

To say the video is 'a wreck' is an admission, that the critic niether understands art, nor does he/she have a sence of humour. The video is tongue-in-cheek; a parody of the video genre. What that person (who made the comment) missed, was how great the song is! The video is just a vehicle (I must say, quite an amusing vehicle: It especially made me laugh, at the end.) What was over-looked was the song, itself. I've been listening to "I Flow" on Indie103.com and I love it. Kudos.

I love this video because it

I love this video because it takes us back to a time when they were humorous without being mean (eminem). MTV has "wrecked" modern video aesthetics by showing us that if girls aren't oiled up and pressing their tits together, they are irrelevant. Thank god there are 3 girls out there repping for the rest of us.

Amazing song and cool video.

Amazing song and cool video. Simple, 80ish look, yet artsy in a moder way.

Rumor has it that this song

Rumor has it that this song is about her menstrual cycle. Haha!

Regarding the video -- nice dancing...
