Request: Unkle, Eye for an Eye
I've been trying to track this down since I first saw it at Resfest 4 or 5 years ago. I'm looking for the Shynola produced clip. I remember it being one of the slickest pieces of work that year. Then it dissapeared.
I thought maybe they were saving it for a DVD compilation of UNKLE videos, or maybe a Shynola Director's Label disc, but I'm plum tired of waiting.
Anyone know of a quicktime link to this beauty?
Google and singingfish both give negative results. I have a saved quicktime that I cant remember where I found but its a little small to do it justice. This is a classic clip a very rare piece of work that is entertaining and beautifully executed whilst being a true work of art in that it also comments on society and the world at large. I think this is one of the few music videos that points the way for the future of the medium as a maturing artform that can bypass existing rigid visual stereotypes and conventions and open new ground in moving image making. In the words of Herzog “If we do not get new images we will go the way of the dinosaur.”
Google Video:
it's contained in shynola's reel: www.thedirectorsbureau.com
Quicktime:
Really tremendous. The Thin Red Line samples may be too much (and too muddled), but it really builds into something rather massive.
Very solid promo here.
I've got three versions on my hdd: Short Version [4:17] (MPEG2) Long Version [6:28] (MPEG1) QOTSA Remix [6:35] (MPEG2)
Thanks everyone. God Damn... Shynola... Everytime with those guys.
Slightly better quality version - 79mb HERE
