Congratulations to client Perfume Genius

Congratulations to client Perfume Genius on the release of his subversive music video for the single “Queen,” from his upcoming LP “Too Bright.”  The song reached #6 on the Billboard emerging artists chart, and has also received favorable reviews by Pitchfork, Time Magazine, and Rolling Stone.  

The video explores the underlying rage caused by “gay panic,” with “an alternative universe Forrest Gump and Jenny, except with fluid genders and ever-shifting identities,” according to the press release.  Among other things, the video features a pack of baby pigs, a one-legged Elvis impersonator, computer smashing, business executives chowing down on giant shrimp, and more.  Enjoy:
