Video premiered on Interview Magazine
Amstutz and Trapnell (who are also a couple) worked closely on the clip—the two directed, shot, and edited the video together. “The whole thing was honestly just the two of us carting gear, building altars, and generally scaring other beach-dwellers,” Amstutz says, with echoes of Bergman, via Summer with Monika and Persona, and Godard. “We appreciate the way they experiment with the form within a loose narrative. If any of that is seeping through, we’ll take it as a compliment,” Amstutz says. - Dale Eisinger, Interview

You can see the rad group in action in their new video for “Thrills,” a dark, hazy adventure that we’ve had on repeat ever since it first landed on our screens. - Liza Darwin, Nylon Mag
