King Krule – “Octopus”

Last year, the young London croaker-songwriter King Krule released his damaged jazz-folk-step “Rock Bottom” b/w “Octopus” single and a head-wrecking odyssey of a video for the A-side. Today, he shares a video for “Octopus,” the B-side. It’s got a smaller scope than the “Rock Bottom” video, but it’s really just as strange — Krule trapped in a bathroom in one of the further-out circles of hell, calmly puffing on a cigarette and ignoring the flashing lights and the girl submerged in inky bathwater. Paraic and Michael Morrissey direct, just as they did with the “Rock Bottom” video.
