Asked to describe his band's new Ellen Frances-directed music video, Jeremy Fury — frontman for Brooklyn-based quintet Jeremy and the Harlequins — says: 'Part 50's Americana, part David Lynch-esque noir cinema, and part occult influenced, stripped naked, rock 'n' roll.'

WATCH: CREEP x LOU RHODES “Vertigo”

"The video, shot by New York director Ellen Frances, shows British singer Lou Rhodes becoming an extraterrestrial birdlike creature of some sort, multicolored talons and all, amid a dark collage of slow-motion images. And the song is a string-laden, synthpop masterpiece, buoyed by Rhodes’ chilly vocals. These disparate elements inform a sense of otherworldly escapism——a dazzling kind of dizziness." http://beautifulsavage.com/music/watch-creep-x-lou-rhodes-vertigo/

This Brooklyn duo teams up with director Ellen Frances for a spooky, yet ethereal clip.
