See: Cults reveal visuals for Right Words and Natural State.


New York duo Cults have released new videos for two tracks from their recent album Offering – Right Words and Natural State. Shot in LA, the video is a crossover of mediums, directed by Elliott Sellers with animations by Lucy Dyson. The video develops from natural to surreal scenes, following Cults frontwoman Madeline Follin through a psychedelic journey of visually engaging collages, that features ants heavily. Thats got to be a good thing, right..? Elliot says of the making of the video, “We shot Right Words in a few hours around Griffith Park. Madeline was in LA for a wedding and we discussed getting weird with an acid-dipped strawberry picnic idea and some classic cut-up/collage techniques. Natural State was basically the come down of all the psychedelic 2d animation, existing in the real world. Long live ‘Flat-Madeline.’”

Right Words is this Summery, hook laden slice of synth-pop. It’s dreamy, off-kilter, edge of the dancefloor music with big chords and a bigger chorus. Natural State is slower and more circumspect, but is similarly dreamy, sweetened (as if it needed to be) by vocal harmonies and this almost torch song backing.
