Stroke "Juicy Juice" the (Michael Palmieri) Director Cut + Mashup
and the Spin Article about the video.
I also found this letter Michael wrote to someone named triple_six who did a Night of the Living Dead mashup of the video.
(via Stereogum)
Amazing what a good cut can do - dont u agree antville nasties? well band performance gets A - narrative D hate the granny etc- seems like our old Mike should try and hang out with young folk a bit more to get inspiration on taboo subjects- vomiting and gay boys snogging was so 1999.
umm yeah.
Jonas Akerland has done a couple X-rated videos - The Prodigy "Smack my Bitch Up"; Metallica "Turn the Page" and Smashing Pumpkins "Try Try Try" - the director's cut of these videos actually held some artistic weight so you could emphathize with the director's ordeal over censorship.
Here, to see the on-air cut, then the directors cut, then read the letter- all I can conclude is that "Juicebox" just plain sucks.
i really like the director ( as a person and as a director) but really.......is this the right video for the band???????
not saying it's his fault...the label makes the major decisions....it's sad but MOST directors in MV have to be whores
This vid is very mediocre, and the song is really plain too. There's absolutely nothing dangerous about it, nothing sexy, nothing edgy. Wannabe rockers. Ha ha ha ha!
