Indie rock singer and musician Marissa Nadler and rock artist Stephen Brodsky just released a music video for their song “For The Sun” earlier today. The video, created by Deborah Sheedy, is in the style of stop motion animation and proves itself to be quite avant-garde. “For The Sun” is the second song off of their newest studio album Droneflower released through Sacred Bones. Additionally, the two will be going on a mini tour at a few locations on the East Coast including New Haven, Brooklyn, and New York this year.

The music video has a hypnotic and edgy feel to it. Creepy imagery is sustained throughout including a head attached to the ground that wallows in a bed of flowers. Later on, a figure is seen drowning in shadows as her head morphs between a flower to a heart and other figures. Her hands move throughout as they seem to aid in shaping her own head. The movements of all the objects throughout move in a robotic way making the already strange imagery even more unsettling. At the end of the music video, the figure finds the head in the bed of flowers and places it on her neck. We see the roses continue to dance and the video concludes on a haunting note as the figure of the woman stands still in dark lighting. The song accompanies the video very well as Nadler’s voice hypnotizes listeners. The spaced out sounds on the track in combination with the reverb on Nadler’s voice add a tinge of mystery to the video, on top of the already vague meaning. Check out the video below:

Droneflower is the first album Nadler and Brodsky have collaborated on. The two met back in 2014 when Brodsky saw Nadler perform at the Saint Vitus Bar in Brooklyn. Both made plans to create a horror soundtrack as a prospective collaboration but instead created Droneflower, though the album has somewhat creepy sounds that are horror-esque. It’s obvious that the two have musical chemistry and have even discussed plans for future collaborations in an interview.
