With a career spanning 15 years it is hard to find something The Kills haven’t done. Now we can check another thing off their list, the new trend of VR music videos. Their track ‘Whirling Eye’ has been given the 360 treatment.

It sees Allison Mosshart and Jamie Hince essentially having a bit of fun on their tour as you find yourself spinning the camera around (trying to find Mosshart if you’re like one of our editors). It’s an entertaining pastime which is enhanced by the typically spiky track.

Taken form the last album, and the band’s fifth long player, “Ash and Ice” the track is a Kills classic. Raw guitar, spliced with Mosshart’s demanding vocal. If you like The Kills you’ll like the track and if you like messing around on Youtube, there’s a good chance you’ll enjoy the video

Impossible Tracks

Introducing our new video for “! Shot by director Ellis Bahl, at Luna Park – the old weird and wonderful amusement park of dreams and nightmares so iconic to Melbourne Australia. We’d always wanted to shoot there, so on our last tour down under, we took this fine opportunity.
Welcome to off season… winter time, blistering bitter cold, the park to ourselves all day and night. The lights buzzing, the gears cranking, a hallucinatory stream of whiplash and spin. We shot between bursts of monsoon weather and crooked wind, we rode the rides, played the games, and lost ourselves in the mirror house. Enter in, the guts of the park, through the mouth of lights, Luna’s pearly teeth, past the big bad gaze of those glowing blue eyes… Buckle your belts and take the ride on impossible tracks.

Love, The Kills.
