The Streets and IDLES traverse a narcotic wilderness in 'None Of Us Are Getting Out Of This Alive' video
The Streets has supplied some hallucinogenic new visuals for ‘None Of Us Are Getting Out Of Here Alive’, the title track from Mike Skinner’s most recent mixtape .
Joining forces with the punk-tinged sonics of Bristol rock band IDLES, Skinner’s jumpy wordplay is underpinned by growling waves of guitar distortion, creating a corrosive sound that welds together two contrasting genres into an unlikely whole.
The 12-track project marked the Streets’ first record in 9 years after releasing in July. Replacing cocky lyrics of a misspent youth with blunted realisations of middle-aged life, the mixtape sees Skinner inject new perspectives into his work.
Directed by Rollo Jackson, the visual features IDLES frontman Joe Talbot and Mike Skinner traversing through a lucid wilderness, where the skies are purple and orange and oversized lighters double-up as watchtowers.
