Uèle Lamore’s music video for “Something About Us” gives the song with its gritty yet playful instrumental music in fuzzed out post-punk style melodies its proper contextualization. Throughout the video we are treated to a running string of possible genre tags that are as varied as the music’s fairly genre-less quality itself. It could fit in a weird video game about time travel and culture swapping. It could work for a fun-loving ninja movie starring Sho Kosugi and get him out of retirement for one more movie, a surreal sequel to the nonsensically supernatural Ninja III: The Domination. Maybe a film about cowboys who all gathered together to create a commune after having spent time in the worlds of Sergio Leone films and Jodorowsky’s El Topo having given up on a life of violence and opting for one where they preserve their legacy through elaborate musicals. Anyone made a sequel to Knight Riders? Lamore has you covered here and offering the concept of “low budget Riders of Rohan” but with the idea of cosplay being a thing these days it could work out. However this song might be placed or enjoyed it has a decided trickster experimental pop quality that can shapeshift into any setting.
