London's the Big Pink-- the 4AD-signed duo of Robbie Furze (Panic DHH, Alec Empire) and Merok Records founder Milo Cordell-- go black and white and loud all over on this Pitchfork.tv-exclusive video from their forthcoming self-titled debut album. "The track nods to such sonic reference points as the shoegaze of My Bloody Valentine or Spiritualized's tender adventures in distortion but the track's chiming chorus and melodic nuance allow it a fragile beauty of its very own," Pitchfork contributor James Knight wrote of previous single "Crystal Visions". The words apply just as well to the stately, treble-enshrouded "Velvet", with droning backing vocals that could suggest Deerhunter if they wrote Echo and the Bunnymen-style anthems. The mirroring-happy clip could be NSFW depending on how your boss feels about brief glimpses of breasts (or UK space rock).Pitchfork.tv page with embed code is here.[from The Big Pink; forthcoming on 4AD]
