MS MR's surreal music videos

Today (8 April 2013), the new video for the song 'Hurricane' by New York-based duo MS MR (Lizzy Plapinger and Max Hershenow) premiered on VEVO. The music video with surreal scenes (which awaken associations with Salvador Dali's dreamy world, Antonin Artaud's theatre of cruelty) is filmed by writer, director, photographer Luke Gilford in Southern California. The 'Hurricane' video is described as "bewitching glimpse into otherworldly experiences of suburban youth" - some of these experiences happen in a wigs salon (video below).

'Hurricane' is the first single from MS MR's upcoming debut album 'Secondhand Rapture'. The album track 'Bones' was recently featured in HBO's Game Of Thrones season trailer and the song 'Fantasy' was presented with the video directed by Austin Peters who showed "...a world filled with fantasies gone wrong where the mundane, the surreal and the supernatural are all intertwined and what is real becomes a matter of perspective," introduce MS MR into the filmic story.
