Simian Mobile Disco: "Cruel Intentions" (feat. Beth Ditto) (Video)

1:37 p.m. · November 13, 2009 · by Matthew Richardson

It's always great when a band goes the distance for their clips, and doesn't force the viewer to spend 4 minutes analyzing some silly, half-cocked concept, but Simian Mobile Disco's clip for "Cruel Intentions" seems to push the video, taken from short film "Study After Cruel Intentions," more than the song. I mean, is that ether that that chick injects into her armpit? Is she drinking special Kool-Aid? Does that chick who looks like a ginger Anna Wintour instigate some kind of sapphic orgy? Consider my interest piqued, Simian Mobile Disco.
