Philip Selway unveils a brilliantly inventive video for "Around again "

Following many excellent reviews for new album Weatherhouse (press quotes below), PHILIP SELWAY has just unveiled a brilliantly inventive video to new single 'Around Again' directed by acclaimed Spanish film-makers NYSU. Speaking about the video, NYSU say "The song talks about the feeling of being always "around" the same place again, so we wanted to represent this... but literally. That's why we thought in a circular way to tell two parallel stories inside the same space and time. Deform the straight narrative line and make it a curve. We love to tell the classic movie script full of envy and revenge but in a complex visual language." Click HERE to watch!

Philip Selway will be on tour in the Belgium in February. Dates/info below:

Friday 7th February – BRUSSELS - AB

Critical acclaim for Weatherhouse, out now on Bella Union:

  • “With more ambition and further forays into experimental electronics than its understated predecessor, Weatherhouse properly uncovers Selway as a compelling songwriter.” NME – 7/10
  • "Expansive second solo album from Radiohead drummer... Rich in texture and atmosphere, suggesting an affinity with John Martyn and Talk Talk." Uncut – 7/10
  • “Weatherhouse gives off a strong sense of chemistry, with Selway's musicianship pushed to its creative potential by those around him to create a sound which combines the hauntingly atmospheric with the poignantly delicate.” DIY – 4 Stars ****
  • “A storming assertion of talent... From the cascading rhythms of 'Around Again' to the eerie sound effects of 'Miles Away', Selway and his collaborators have assembled a solid set of finely crafted, richly atmospheric songs.” Record Collector – 4 Stars ****
  • Weatherhouse feels as sonically pioneering as the music Selway makes with Radiohead. 'Let It Go' and 'It Will End In Tears' soar with technicolour, lighter-in-the-air choruses, 'Coming Up For Air' throbs with Bjork's Post-era angst, while 'Miles Away' has the strident menace of late-90s Massive Attack.” Loud & Quiet – 7/10
  • From Weatherhouse's first electronic pulse it's clear Selway's skills have grown since his debut solo album... The perspective he brings to writing adult rock music is both fresh and contemplatively knowing. ” Q
  • Expansive and eclectic... Convincing evidence of a singular voice being belatedly found. ” MOJO
  • Weatherhouse is confident and colourful... Each track offers a unique character of its own, from the echoing vocals and dramatic stealth of 'Coming Up For Air' to the Lennon-esque piano of 'It Will End In Tears'.” Prog
