I could tell you what I see in my head and it hurts—that hockey-checking shrieker in the tattered flannel tying me up to a rickety board in Nü Sensae‘s basement lair, just kicking me and spitting on me over and over and over again until I drown in it (Ed Note: is “hurts” a euphemism “totally turns me on”, Klaus?).  Call it sick, Jesus, but it feels so God damn right (Ed Note: Let’s leave the Christians and their lord and his son out of this okay sicko?).

In its stylistic simplicity, “Spit Gifting” is shot and edited with a competence rarely displayed in music today. The future is about cheap, tacky humor and empty pop choruses—Del Taco jokes, songs about Arizona Green Tea, and videos starring the same scrawny, shape-shifting socialite in pointy brown shoes, barely tethered to the real world by one of those over-sized record label pins and a tall can of cheap beer.

It’s an alleviating shock choking on Nü Sensae’s spiteful loogies (Ed Note: Or spitful HAHAHAHAH I’m funny), songs with a genuine intensity and a video shot in a single room with no smiles or frowns or goofy faces to compensate for lack of talent.  The trio strikes like a shot of dope through a sniper’s barrel—straight through the heart, leaving you empty and dying for more.

Watch the video, directed by Daniel Pelissier and Spoiler, below, and be sure to pick up Nü Sensae’s latest record Sundowning HERE.
