Is Tropical – ‘Dancing Anymore’
Be careful, Is Tropical, you’re starting to get a reputation. The brilliant London trio have teamed up with Megaforce for their new single, ‘Dancing Anymore’.
In the video, a French kid is left to work in a woman’s house but becomes slightly distracted fantasising about having his wicked way with the married chick. Megaforce, who have been nominated for two UK Music video awards this year for ‘Best Rock’, ‘Indie Video’ and ‘Best Animation’ have previously worked with the likes of Tame Impala, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Madonna featuring Nicki Minaj.
Having watched it, I spent half the time impressed by the 3D animation, half the time laughing as the video continues to take the joke further and further, and a lot of time grossed out as the kid wipes his hand after completing the deed.
Of course, this isn’t the first time Is Tropical has gone down this route; remember ‘Lies’? When we’re introduced to a pole dancer getting very much down and dirty, albeit stylishly directed and edited I might add.
More recently, the band teamed up with the exceptional photographer (and porn director) Richard Kern to direct ‘Lovers Cave’, which can only be described as a bunch of babes running around topless whilst the band play, typically Kern.
‘Dancing Anymore’ is a track that, if you check the band’s YouTube channel, has been sampled and remixed by plenty. With that said, though, you won’t find the official video; it’s banned after ‘its content violated YouTube’s Terms Of Service.’
Luckily you can see it here; I hope you’re not sitting with your gran or little sister or something, though. That would be weird.
