 R. Ring

Hug (Official Video)

Don Giovanni Records


The video is nicely humorous and darkly satirical. Falling apples never looked so menacing, as do shaking skeletons and other cut and pasted figures and objects in a really wonderful collage by Alex Leonard of Protomartyr and Amanda Shepard.


The song is too, and more or less self explanatory about giving someone a hug. It’s from this band’s excellent new album, War Poems, We Rested, and “Hug” is one of the best songs on it. It’s sung by Kelley Deal. She, Mike Montgomery and Laura King play great. So watch it, have some fun, and then pick up their album.
