BUNUEL - For The Cops (official video)

Taken form the album “Killers Like Us“ (2022). Stream and obtain “Killers Like Us“ on CD/LP/Digital here: Directed and animated by Dimitris Armenakis: A few words from vocalist Eugene: “ ...life and its meandering crossroads saw me getting arrested for a charge of which, to quote Nick Cave, I was almost nearly wholly innocent. Apparently telling cops that your name is Abraham Lincoln IS a crime in America. False Information to a Police Officer. But that’s not was going on that day in the cell. That day in the cell I imagined I was being set up to be raped by being given clothes with no zippers that worked to keep them on. I also thought I’d be able to keep my own clothes. Which is where and when they found the knife I had not managed to tell them I had. If you’ve never been approached by men with nightsticks who are intent on beating you into compliance while you’ve been naked in a jail cell, you have not lived. In regards to the video it really helped to have a genius like Armenakis both soften the story by animating it and in some/lots of ways make it more nightmarish. If that was even possible.“ BUNUEL 2022 Fall EU Tour Dates: 10/13 - Porto, PT @ Amplifest 10/14 - Ravenna, IT @ Bronson 10/15 - Torino, IT @ Spazio 211 10/16 - Milano, IT @ Legend 10/17 - Genova, IT @ Cane 10/18 - Genève, CH @ La Cave 12 10/19 - Paris, FR @ L’International 10/20 - Namur, BE @ Belvedere 10/21 - Nijmegen, NL @ Soulcrusher
