Political Animals – “Who Want What” (Video)

Watch “Who Want What”, a new video from band Political Animals. Front man Sotorios delivers his bars while floating through a dark alley, levitating during meditation, and defying the laws of physics. Band mates are bassist Jen, drummer Trenton, and live-sampler DJ Neb. Read a bit more below and watch the video above. The video was directed by Shane McLellan.

Political Animals’ new video for “Who Want What” is what happens when you take the key elements of any work of art—the music video, in this case—and completely flip them on their head. That’s due to the handiwork of director Shane McLellan, who has previously worked work with Ceschi, I.N.F., as well as the PACT (Political Animals). Here, he captures the New Haven, Conn. four-piece’s genre-bending approach and applies it to film for something reminiscent of the Beastie Boys’ most influential videos.

You watch as front man Sotorios delivers his potent bars while floating through a dark alley, levitating during meditation, and defying the laws of physics. And the same goes for his band mates—bassist Jen, drummer Trenton, and live-sampler DJ Neb—who ignore gravity while performing their blend of grimy Hip-Hop and Funk.

Although an album title and release date has yet to be announced, be sure to follow PACT on social media for updates. In the interim, head over to their Bandcamp page (refer to link below) if you’d like to support their previous releases.
