Paradise//Lust [Massive Attack's controversial new video]

18. Dec, 2009 3 Comments

Massive Attack’s new video, Paradise Circus, is not for the faint hearted (and not safe for work).

Please note: the video at the bottom of this page plays automatically.

It features 70′s porn star, Georgina Spelvin, both today, as a little old lady, and back in her glory days, getting right to business. Certainly the first time I’ve seen a granny discuss orgasms, her career in the adult film industry and use the term ‘fuck film’. Shock value is indeed present, and the 70′s porn aesthetic (fluff included) may not be everyone’s idea of MTV generation media. There is however, no doubt that as a music video it is hugely innovative, and the composition of the various media is somewhat beautiful in its authenticity. Maar is dit kuns? You decide.

    Gorgeous. Best music video I’ve ever seen, hands down.

    The style is cool, but is it really necessary to show all that?
