“Five Seconds” is a song that’s already been surrounded by romantic motorcycle myth. First, Twin Shadow’s George Lewis Jr. told us the entire new album was inspired by motorcycle rides through L.A., and then the single arrived in all its ’80s Americana glory, with visuals suggesting an endless stretch of road on Twin Shadow’s website and George decked out in leather, pristinely coiffed rockabilly haircut in full force. The video for the first single from Confess, appropriately enough, finds George cruising the open road, before transforming into a full blown, mysterious action sequence, apparently based on some short fiction penned by Lewis himself. Shot gorgeously, the video also finds our good friend D’Angelo rounding out one bad ass action duo. Which is awesome. In any case, more to come from Twin Shadow soon.
