The dream-pop darlings in Youth Lagoon have produced a beautiful music video for “July,” off debut album The Year Of Hibernation (Fat Possum). “July” brings frontman Trevor Powers’ wistful vocals to the forefront, showcasing the deep emotion behind his (sometimes unintelligible) words. Tyler T. Williams, who also directed the video for YL’s “Montana,” worked with Powers to create a visual tale of love and anger. The clip has a great cinematic quality to it, with well-composed, washed-out shots typical of nostalgic ’80s classics. If the song’s quietly haunting melody doesn’t give you chills, the video’s plot will. Watch the clip below.
