Video: Amen Dunes – Lonely Richard

Posted on the 25 November 2014 by Ifm @ifmdotcom

Earlier this year, lo-fi Brooklyn musician Damon McMahon released his latest album Love under the Amen Dunes moniker, featuring impressive names like Colin Stetson, Iceage’s Elias Bender-Rønnenfelt and Godspeed You! Black Emperor’s Dave Bryant and Efrim Menuch. The motoric, looping rhythms and guitar chords of “Lonely Richard” evoked some distant comparisons to The Velvet Underground and served perhaps as Love’s most rewarding moment alongside the title track. Above is the recently released Kenneth Zoran Curwood directed video for the “Lonely Richard” shot on 16mm film and showing nicely edited, grainy footage of various boroughs of NY.
