Young Knives have unveiled a psychedelic video for their single ‘Jenny Haniver’.The track is taken from ‘Barbarians’, the fifth album from the band and their first since 2013’s ‘Sick Octave’.The animated clip was created by Iman Mahdy, a member of the London-based BLKbrd Collective whom the brothers met through the Women’s Music Project in Oxford.“We were struggling when it came to the concept for the video because we make quite grotesque videos in general, and we really felt like it was time to hand it to someone else who would be able to bring out something different in the story,” the band’s Henry Dartnall explained in a press statement.“Iman’s illustrations and animation style has such a dream-like quality, and a real touch of something.
