Electronica band Austra released a steamy and provocative video for their new single “Forgive Me” off their second album Olympia.
Directed by Claire Edmonson, the darkly themed video starts out innocently enough with a teenage boy riding his bike staring at a girl sitting on a bench, then flashes over to a young man walking and sitting on another bench. But then lead singer, and name sake, Katie Austra Stelmanis walks out of the forest into a clearing, looking like a sexed-up Little Red Riding Hood, although in purple, wearing a short hooded cape and small dress hiked up showing lingerie underneath. With lyrics What can I do to make you forgive me, the video goes into voyeur-mode, with flashes of Stelmanis leaning up against a tree receiving and giving oral sex to the young man. They finally leave hand in hand, while the boy on the bike reaches a clearing in the woods staring at neon letters spelling out “Forgive Me.”
“Forgive Me” is one of the quieter and subtle songs on Olympia, with a constant beat going and sensually melancholy vocals throughout, leaning away from much of the album’s typical EDM, fast paced sound.
Olympia is out now on Domino Records.
