One of 2024’s most eagerly awaited releases is the Jesus Lizard’s new album, Rack, which arrives today via Ipecac Recordings. The band have also revealed a Bill Barminski-created video for “Falling Down.”
“I met Bill in Austin back in the mid ‘80s. He was doing underground comics and zine-type stuff,” Duane Denison notes of his friendship with the innovative artist known for his distinctive cardboard sculptures and thought-provoking street art. “We met through mutual friends in the punk rock scene and recently became reacquainted through social media.”
Barminski adds: “We all come from the same place and there seems to be a bond between people who were there. So when Duane asked me to do this video I naturally said yes. It’s all hand drawn cell animation that I have been experimenting with. Very kinetic and fast-paced, which matched the song very well.”
