Hot off the bagging their second platinum single with “Beggin'”, Måneskin return with a slick new video for their new single “Supermodel”.
Filmed in London and directed by Bedroom Projects (The 1975) and Ben Chappell (Arctic Monkeys, Nine Inch Nails), the cinematic visual sees the Gucci-styled band pay tribute to their favourite ‘90s movies.
“The Måneskin video was a project that was inspired by the references of a mixture of ’90s films like Run Lola Run, Reservoir Dogs, as well as, Hitchcock and a bit of 1950s Hollywood. The macguffin of the mysterious purse was something out of Marnie or Pulp Fiction. Shot on Super 16,” Bedroom Projects explained when questioned about the overall creative direction.
Working closely with the team to recreate frame shots and sequences from their favourite ’90s films, some of the comedic scenes have a B-Grade detective vibe to them, and by combining classic elements of Tarantino and Hitchcock, the band perfectly captures the song’s fierce mood and playful lyrics as a series of catastrophic events unfold.
The song itself, produced alongside pop prodigy Max Martin and his team, is a California-soaked rock anthem is loosely based on characters they met during their time in LA – no doubt content for at least several more singles.
As Måneskin continue to assert themselves as one of the most exciting rock bands around, we continue to follow their every stylish move because in all honesty, there’s little not to love about these Italians.
