Video: Lemonade, “Lifted”

February 01, 2010



Lemonade's new video for "Lifted" is like a coed version of Lord of the Flies. Either the dripping or the steel drums remove the song from macho power grab allegory. Lemonade have smiley face dolphins on the cover their new EP, Pure Moods, ecstatic upstate explorers in their video, cowbells and love calls in their lyrics. There's a certain minty quality to this band and song, thick green just like salad leaves of their contemporaries, but registering deftly with left-field zest, bred to be quietly handsome, subtle game changers.
