The Fresh & Onlys have shared the cinematic new video for "Animal of One," a soaring track off their latest LP, House Of Spirits, which released earlier this month.
The video finds the four-piece - Tim Cohen (vocals, guitar), Wymond Miles (guitar), Shayde Sartin (bass) and Kyle Gibson (drums) - acting as both participant and spectator in a meta-theatrical, film noir fever dream.
Director Medhi Alavi is said to have drawn inspiration from 1970's B-movies as well as the work of Andrew Wyeth and Terry Gilliam.
Bassist Shayde Sartin notes the film Paris, Texas as a thematic influence. "My character was supposed to be on a similar mission to return something sacred to his one true love. There's no real reasoning or exact explanation as to how he got there,” he shares.
