Saintseneca – “Visions” Video (Stereogum Premiere)

We heard Saintseneca’s “Uppercutter” B-side and Dark Arc deep cut “Visions” last month — I called it “a fervently strumming, wildly harmonious heart-pounder of the loud-quiet-loud persuasion” — and now, appropriately, we can see “Visions” too. In a clip directed by the Zenga Bros., the song becomes the soundtrack to a rapid-fire collage of old home movies (which may or may not involve faith healing), colorfully disintegrating slides, and scenes of young people wreaking carnage while running wild and free. It continues to raise my excitement for the album they’re dropping this spring; watch it below.
