Segundo vídeo y single del nuevo disco de los suecos The Knife. "A Tooth For An Eye" lleva sonando desde hace varios días, al igual que su contundente primer single "Full Of Fire".
"Shacking The Habitual" saldrá oficialmente el 8 de abril, y por lo poco que hemos podido escuchar, tras 12 años revolucionando la electrónica y el pop, abriendo el camino para la aparición de nuevas bandas, los hermanos suecos no han perdido la frescura y las ganas de innovar y sorprender. Tampoco han perdido ese toque reivindicativo y crítico con la sociedad, aquí la explicación de su genial nuevo vídeo:
Podremos verles en directo en el Primavera Sound, sin duda es uno de los conciertos que no hay que perder.'A Tooth For An Eye' deconstructs images of maleness, power and leadership. Who are the people we trust as our leaders and why? What do we have to learn from those we consider inferior? In a sport setting where one would traditionally consider a group of men as powerful and in charge, an unexpected leader emerges. A child enters and allows the men to let go of their hierarchies, machismo and fear of intimacy, as they follow her into a dance. Their lack of expertise and vulnerability shines through as they perform the choreography. Amateurs and skilled dancers alike express joy and a sense of freedom; There is no prestige in their performance. The child is powerful, tough and sweet all at once, roaring "I'm telling you stories, trust me". There is no shame in her girliness, rather she possesses knowledge that the men lost a long time ago.'
