Low have always been a treasure of a band – subtle and sweet one moment, stunning and tragic the next, their back catalogue is one of depth, mystery and above all else – gorgeous, heartfelt songs.
Today they release the video for the outstanding ‘Lies’ drawn from the Sub Pop album ‘Ones and Sixes’.
Video director Manuel Aragon had this to say about the moving new clip:
“Diego is a jornalero – a day laborer, struggling to maintain his livelihood. Daily, he navigates between two very different realities: one, the worker, very much on the outskirts of society, unseen, unnoticed; the other, a Mexican-American 20-something, one half of a mixed-race couple trying to sustain their relationship and manage their cultural differences.”
You can watch the video right now here:
