Warpaint – ‘Stars’
This music video, shot by Adam Harding in the ashes of the Angeles National Forest, is a thing of beauty. The fact that it combines girls kissing with ethereal light-painting and reverse slow-motion fireworks does it no harm at all.
Said girls, LA trio Warpaint, have a distinct ‘shoegazer’ vibe, flavoured with a hint of the sexy menace and mania of Throwing Muses and the tribal aesthetic of UK post-punk group The Slits.
