Posted by Japanese Breakfast is joined by Sopranos actor Michael Imperioli in new video ‘Savage Good Boy’.
The songwriter’s new album ‘Jubilee’ will be released on June 4th, and her memoir Crying In H-Mart is receiving outstanding reviews.
New song ‘Savage Good Boy’ is out now, and it co-stars a familiar face from a vastly successful HBO series.
Indie’s man of the moment Michael Imperioli takes a leading role in the video, and it’s a world away from the Sopranos.
Japanese Breakfast comments…
‘Savage Good Boy’ came from a headline I read about billionaires buying bunkers. I was interested in examining that specific type of villainy, and I found myself adopting the perspective of a rich man coaxing a young woman to come live with him underground, attempting to rationalize his almost impossible share of greed and miserliness. I knew I wanted the music video to be a pretty literal interpretation of that idea.
I wanted to juxtapose images of this post-apocalyptic, industrial bunker with the lightness and extravagance of rococo fashion and set design. Aiming for that balance, my cinematographer, Adam Kolodny, and I were really inspired by Chan Wook Park’s The Handmaiden, Stanley Kubrick’s Barry Lyndon and Sally Potter’s Orlando.
Check it out now.
