Summer Cannibals

The video incorporates Catholic signifiers, drawing inspiration from films like Sin of Jesus and Last Supper. It features notable visuals, including a kitsch depiction of Jesus and a Caravaggesque close-up of Patti Smith’s foot, which adds an intriguing layer to the punkish theme.

Produced by Michael Schamberg, who is known for his collaborations with various prominent artists, the video stands out in the realm of music videos from the 1990s. Schamberg's connections with directors like Kathryn Bigelow and Jonathan Demme underscore the artistic merit of this piece. This work reflects an era when music videos were becoming an essential medium for artistic expression, merging music with compelling visuals.
