"Half Asleep" [Video Premiere]

Pitchfork.tv: School of Seven Bells: "Half Asleep" [Video Premiere]

The video for School of Seven Bells' "Half Asleep", from their recent album Alpinisms, is just as dreamy as the soaring melodies of the original tune. Twin sisters Alejandra and Claudia Deheza ride along rainy NYC streets inside what may be the imagination of one, or both, of the twins, while Ben Curtis' swirling guitar and gauzy electronic textures provide a lulling background for their chilling, tight harmonies. Toby Halbrooks directs.
