Featuring her performing with her new band, who you might have seen out on tour this year, Marika Hackman has a new video out for the song “Time’s Been Reckless” – taken from her album I’m Not Your Man. The video features a bunch of references to the album artwork by Tristan Piggott, switching between 35mm film and glitchy, lo-fi FX around Marika and her live band.
“I wanted to do a performance video to highlight the energetic nature of the music, but I also wanted more gruesome visuals to reflect the dark themes of death and decay within the lyrics. We filmed maggots, snails and various other insects feeding on different foods from the album artwork, in a style that harks back to those old VHS tapes teachers would put on in biology lessons.”
