Crimewave Video Explained

Category: CC News

Fake video.

Many of you may have been wondering about the Crimewave Video, from the mouth of Ethan Kath, to NME’s Alex Miller:

“The last thing we wanted to do was make a video for Crimewave. Our label kept bothering us and everyone we know for a video. They were going to make a video themselves and then send us the bill! To stop this from happening we decided to put together a fake video. The label doesn’t know that we simply stole footage from a hardcore gay porn film by a legendary art movie director. We had a friend take all the non-sex scenes from Bruce LaBruce’s “Otto” and cut it to the track. The label fell for it. They thought we had gone out and filmed a video of a boy wandering around. We didn’t get charged for the video the label were going to pay someone to make, which we would have rejected anyways.”
