“In 2017, we’re in an unfathomable era of political atrocities and digital abundance, and yet it only takes seconds for Slowdive’s sonic wizardry to captivate your mind and catapult you off into realms blissfully uncharted,” Albumism’s Rayna Khaitan suggested in her review of Slowdive’s eponymous new album, their first after a 22-year recording hiatus. And the same sentiment certainly applies to the evocative, Grant Singer directed video for “Don’t Know Why,” which he describes as “less about logic and more about a feeling. It’s a triptych about memory, about being lost and abandoned.” Beautifully shot, it’s the perfect visual accompaniment to this latest offering from Slowdive’s exquisitely crafted fourth album.
