Fever Ray - Stranger Than Kindness

[Ialokin1978]

Actually the lyrics of "Stranger Than Kindness" were written by Anita Lane for Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds album "Your Funeral, My Trial". However, Fever Ray's cover is as brilliant as the original. Only in a different light... an even darker one maybe? Without the seediness of the Seeds?

I'm not entirely sure what this video's about, but it's interesting...

(plus the song sounds really good)

[Valholm]

@bohemianhare this video is about all of those things that you are afraid of in the dark. one day you will understand, i hope.

[Meadowgirl1901]

If Guillermo Del Toro made music, this is what it would sound and look like...

[VenusAsABoyFilms]

Scandinavians make such terrific dark music. It's like no other.

They don't need to be POPular there the shit as is!

[ImJustLaurel]

Why aren't they really popular??? <3

[gwataleechy]

@ImJustLaurel because what normal people listen to sucks balls

[ImJustLaurel]

@gwataleechy True that!

[trtrddsesese]

[ImJustLaurel]

@trtrddsesese No, not really. But okay.

[nuwidol]

Dripping with talent.

Like a demonic Enya ;-)

Quite enchanting, in a dark sort of way... like an opium den in the late 19th century...

[morlokkk]

Music and Lyrics by Blixa Bargeld, not Nick Cave!

Mark Romanek - Light.

[cheeseatsmouse]

It's like if Bjork and Peter Steele (RIP!) from Type O Negative made a band and had a music video directed by Trent Reznor. I adore it!

P.S. - They didn't mean this to be completely serious, right? I mean they were just trying to be really weird.... and succeeded, beautifully!
