“Sick Sick Lover” video by General Oglethorpe and the Panhandlers

The question: What happens when an innovative and ambitious young band also has the technical skills to create their own music videos?

The answer: “Sick Sick Lover” by General Oglethorpe and the Panhandlers, which you can watch on the band’s website or below.

Lead singer Devin Smith is on the verge of graduating from the Savannah College of Art and Design with a degree in film — this video is part of his senior thesis. The gory opening gives way to a darkly orgiastic second half.

This is the first video off General O’s debut album Whistle the Dirges, which can be purchased here and which I reviewed here.
