Don't Know Why

About This Movie

So, there's this music video from slowdive's self-titled album, 'Don't Know Why' from 2017. It's really atmospheric, kind of ethereal, with a dreamy quality that just wraps around you. The pacing is slow and deliberate, which really lets you absorb the visuals and the music. There’s this haunting tone that feels both nostalgic and fresh, a nice balance. The way they blend practical effects with soft lighting is pretty remarkable – it pulls you into this haze of sound and imagery. Definitely not your typical music video; it feels more like a visual poem, you know? You can almost get lost in it if you're in the right headspace.

This music video is part of a unique trend where albums are visually represented through short films, making it a distinct piece in slowdive's catalog. While not readily available across all formats, collectors tend to seek out limited releases, especially if packaged with collectibles or special editions. Its scarcity compared to mainstream releases can drive interest, particularly among fans of the shoegaze genre and those who appreciate the more artistic side of music videos.
