Phosphorescent

"Song for Zula" (video)

BY Alex HudsonPublished Mar 27, 2013

With Phosphorescent's Muchacho available now through Dead Oceans, songwriter Matthew Houck has shared a video for the album's "Song for Zula."

The song rides a dramatic, melancholic groove for around six minutes, and the accompanying video is similarly repetitive. The sustained slow-motion shot shows a chained prisoner in rags attempting to break free by smashing a large rock.
