[NSFW] The Peach Kings “Mojo Thunder”

Directors Kris Merc and Benjy Brooke plumb the depths of addiction, lust and self-destruction for The Peach Kings “Mojo Thunder” official music video. [NSFW]

Despite the convincingly analogue look, the bulk of the project was produced digitally. It wasn’t all ones and zeroes, though.

“A lot of the design we did by hand. Newsprint, white crayon on black cardstock. We tried a lot of things!” explains Merc.
