Yes, It was lovely working with Chris on this. A total nutter and beautiful genius. Tim Arnold (Jocasta)

This is indeed listed as one of CC's earliest works. He also made videos for Dubstar, Geneva, Jesus Jones and Placebo around about the same period. He's on record as saying that for years he just took every single directing job that came along as a way of honing his craft.What's the problem with that? An average band gets an above average video and a genius director gets experience and funding for future work. You can't be a successful filmmaker and starve in a garrett for your art, y'know.

There are several Chris Cunningham on Earth. 2 of them are directors.

@timarnold:

Do you have a higher-quality version of the song that you could post?

Thanks!

@winterknife,

I know, right? I can appreciate his later, more avant-garde work, but there's something about these early videos that is so cinematic and artistic, and yet so human and fresh.  And yet, he hates them and wants nothing to do with them. Strange...

[winterknife]

In some ways I like CC earlier music videos j even moe simply because it's interesting to see his progress as a filmmaker. Hopefully one day he'll make a feature.

I know Cunningham fans are really disappointed by this video, but it's not bad at all. The band is good, and the video is both creative and decently shot.

Thank God Chris Cunningham started taking LSD and dreaming up demons.. This is one of the worst music videos I've ever seen ha.

Really looking forward to the Cunningham Live London show on June 1st. I hear it is mostly made up of new material!!! Sick!!

@CatarinoMulugalei I take it this is not the CC associated with Autechre/Aphex Twin?

Thanks for putting this up Tim, Now I have finally seen it, after what nearly 14 years . I met up with you guys shortly after you had just filmed this and it was all talk of exploding caravans. I still have such good memories of your gigs. Hope all is going beautifully for you and yours Tim.
