Shot mostly underwater, with exaggerated slo-mo, a simplistic palette of grays and dark hues striates with elements of rainbow patterns, and the video is visually united with already powerful yet calm tune influenced by synth and R&B. Directed by Young Replicant as a part of The Creators Project, the VICE x Intel media collaboration.

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?
Written by Guest Blogger Marta Baniukiewicz The xx’s new video for the track Chained, the second single from their latest album Coexist released on 5th of September by Young Turks, is breathtakingly beautiful, cinematic, and interesting, everything one could hope for in a music video. It features band members descending in a giant water reservoir and refers to them talking about a relationship between a man and a woman, here trapped together in the submerged space.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
