The Drowners are a
band who work within the indie rock genre similar to my band of choice. The music
video for their song luv Hold Me Down fits this genre accurately, with the same
old style footage I talk about and the same rock and roll alternative clothes.
This video has a narrative of the band it’s self on tour going around the world
in different places with the underlying tone that “Luv is holding them down”
obviously in relation with the song lyrics, so you could go far to say that
this aspect makes it unconventional. Another part of the video which is
arguably unconventional of this genre is the bright colours that exist due to
the more summer landscape narrative in the video. So we obviously don’t see the
typical black and white. However it could be argued that this song is the
furthest away genre wise from my song choice of bad company by JAWS which is
almost in the genre of alternative hard rock, due to the uneasy atmosphere and
almost metal like instruments of the heavy guitar.
