Gluttony Is The New

RIVKA Kid Animal

Foreign and dramatic and yet oddly familiar, like a warm summer night that lingers long enough for you to be swept up and enveloped in a sea of twinkling (electronic) stars. Beautifully original stuff out of Pittsburgh duo RIVKA. Be sure to listen to their heavy hitting self-titled record in it’s entirety that you can grab from their bandcamp. Def been on heavy rotation all month long.

The video for Kid Animal by kohnkepik, who has also done videos for Holy Other, Clams Casino and Happy Trendy is the nip slip generation’s response to the 1995 video for Smashing Pumpkins Tonight Tonight. We’re all explorers across this vast jungle we call earth, searching for a purpose, something that will quell our infinite sadness, if only temporarily…

Footage from “Baron Prásil” (Karel Zeman, 1962)
