You know how you never got how your mom got so hooked on those daytime soap operas? The ones that always started in media res from yearlong narrative arcs, long, labyrinthian plotlines that seemed to go on perpetually. How many times can a creative team remix people getting their forbidden loves on?
Well, maybe if the soaps were more like La Luz’s latest, we’d get it a bit more. Not bad that the video combines a shot of the occult mixed with the cheesiest (in the best possible way) of action-TV procedurals from back in the day. A dash of “Too Many Cooks” doesn’t hurt either.
Not-coincidentally, The LA-based band also has a new album coming out. Their third on the Hardly Art label, this one’s called Floating Features, and it arrives on LP, CD, digital, and even cassette on May 11. Pre-order it here and check out that video — as well as the album cover art, full tracklisting, and a few floaty spring tour dates — down below:
