[dropcap]I[/dropcap] had a feeling that The Soft Moon would release a video for “Wasting” off their latest album Deeper, and today that suspicion had been confirmed. The clip was directed by Y2K and stars Oscar-nominated actor Robert Forster (Jackie Brown, Mulholland Drive, The Descendants). Watch it above via Pitchfork.tv,
The video for “Wasting” video is said to be a sequel to the “Far” video. Y2K elaborated stating that:
“The Doctor, played by Robert Forster, represents an archetypal summation of the turmoil and torture raging within the character of The Patient, played by Luis [Vasquez, of the Soft Moon]. The Doctor guides The Patient and his fellow Subject (Natalia Selevanova) on a hypnagogic journey into the interior landscape of the mind, a world fraught with tumultuous stroboscopic activity and unbalanced flashes of a brewing violence.”
