Blanco fell, yes, but standing: here is “Cursed Anger”
At the end of the video clip to “cry at 90”, the song that last month marked his return to the scenes after the personal and artistic crisis of the last year, Blanco threw himself from a skyscraper that was crumbling under his feet. When the songwriter of “chills” seemed to be on the point of crashing to the ground, however, by the black and white of the video inspired by “The sky above Berlin” by Wim Wenders, suddenly passed the color images and the special effects of the clip were unmasked by the voice of a director who looking with the head upside down hanging on a crane gave indications to the crew. And while the notes of a new song started, The former enfant terrible of Italian pop was pulled out of the pocket a knife and cut the cables that kept him suspended in the air, falling, this time yes, towards the ground. How did it end? Well: Blanco fell, but standing. So to speak. In the sense that while crashing on the roof of a car, Blancito reported just some scratches. At least, so it seems looking at the video clip of “Cursed Anger”, which is in all respects the sequel to “cry at 90”.
Always made by the collective Broga’sthe same already behind that of the previous single, the video is a psychedelic odyssey between paranoia and surreal visions. The sudden switch of atmospheres reflects the change of sound between the two songs in the center: the piano to “cry at 90” leaves room for synthesizers and drum machines, from a timeless ballet you go to an uptempo that winks at the 80s. And the references also change, from “The sky above Berlin” Eventiveness and schizophrenia of “Fear and delirium in Las Vegas” by Terry Gilliam.
Everything happens in the clip, but really everything: there is a man who gets the nail polish on the nails of the feet as he holds the same feet above a burning beard, the same on which another at a certain point pushes Blanco’s head; There are two disturbing guys who keep in the arms of the geese and caress them, while a giraffe is around them; There is a woman dressed as a lady of the ‘700 she does to shoot with a rifle in Blanco, before the latter starts to drive a car in order to say the least, while singing in playback “cursed anger”. Reality or fantasy, the result of Blanco’s psychedelic visions? Perhaps to find out it will have to wait for the next chapter of the saga.
