The 2019 Prism Prize for Best Canadian Music Video was awarded to Kevan Funk, for his clip for Belle Game’s Low. We will continue to profile noteworthy Canadian videos, including this one from a Toronto post-punk combo with a notable guest.


Absolutely Free ft. U.S. Girls - Currency

 

The band Absolutely Free brings a psychedelic, ‘80s-infused music video to their track Currency while collaborating with U.S. Girls (aka Meg Remy).

In an interview, the band said, “Currency is a nervy post-punk shuffle that gradually blossoms into a dense cosmic house track featuring Meg Remy of U.S. Girls on lead vocals. The lyrics contemplate how social frameworks like gender performance are built, and finds Absolutely Free reckoning with privilege and how to best use their social capital.”

Currency is filled with ambient synths and nifty beats to create a disco hit that sets the tone for the avant-garde video.

Charli xcx Destroys an Electric Guitar in ‘Rock Music’ Video Teaser & Announces New Song’s Release Date

The pop star has been teasing that the track is her edgiest yet.

Charli xcx is stepping onto the rock scene — literally. In a new teaser for her upcoming song “Rock Music,” the pop star stomps on an electric guitar, breaking the base and neck apart with one swift motion.

The black-and-white clip arrived on Instagram on Thursday (May 7) after weeks of Charli teasing her new era. Only her feet — wearing impossibly high black stilettos — are visible in frame. The moment she makes impact with her sharp heel, a blast of fuzzy guitars and drum hits sounds off.
