Steven Brown drops Resist music video
Following “Warning”, the first single off his gorgeous, upcoming album, Tuxedomoon co-frontman Steven Brown releases a music video for a song whose chorus resounds all the more ominously right now: "The past is not over, the past is not past I have no choice but to be An enemy of my time, this faceless tyranny time This fiendish time, this time of fiends"
Directed by Sergio Mérida and shot in Oaxaca, Mexico, the video alternates between footage of social rebellion in Mexico and other parts of the world, and shots of Steven performing the song in a Belle Epoque theatre.
The lyrics are partly inspired by Jean-Luc Godard.Steven Brown’ album El Hombre Invisible, a hypnotic song cycle with remarkable sparse, elegant arrangements, was recorded in Steven’s adopted hometown of Oaxaca, and mixed in Berlin, is out on Crammed Discs on vinyl, cd and digital.
