New Bat for Lashes video

Natasha Khan is an artist with a capital “A”—and she doesn’t let you forget it. Her music videos have all been uniquely dark, weird and compelling, from the supremely creepy video for “What’s a Girl To Do?” to her most recent video for the single “Daniel.” “Daniel” struck an odd note, featuring Khan fighting off some masked figures and falling into the arms of a Ralph Macchio (of Karate Kid fame) look-alike. And the cover of the single itself features Khan standing nude on a beach with her back to you—and a massive Ralph Macchio tattoo across her entire back.
Stereogum has her latest video up, though, from another song off her new album, Two Suns. The song, “Pearl’s Dream,” is a lovely one, drenched in the atmospherics that make Khan’s artistic alter ego, Bat for Lashes, so appealing to indie rock lovers everywhere. Fittingly, the video features Khan floating through a dream, sometimes literally, as she drifts through the air above a foggy stage. It’s pretty trippy and betrays more of the hippyish art school girl quality in Khan’s personality. Check it out here. Then look up when she’s coming to your town and get concert tickets.
