“His lyrics are often abstract and poetic, but delivered with a satisfying flow that brings to mind the experimental writing of people like William Gaddis or Evan Dara.”

Anyway, Betson has teamed up with James Benson to create a video for the track ‘Rapture’, featuring a weirdly subdued breaking-and-entering scenario where the character (played by Betson) carries out a range of ‘normal’ household activities in what is presumably not his house. The Betson/Benson team works well, with a series of seemingly abstract images (shoe prints in dirt, watching televised hockey in the dark, shoes and clothes on the bathroom floor, application/removal of lipstick etc.) forming a curious, eccentric little narrative that leaves you wondering just what is going on.

Yoy can buy The Cover of the Hunter now from the fine folks over at Double Double Whammy.
