This video is fucking weird and that is why I love it. Having recently become infatuated with Perfume Genius and the heavy mystery that accompanies him, I would have expected nothing less from one of his music videos.
“Grid” was the first song that turned me on to Hadreas’s sound which is notably stranger, louder and bolder than any of his previous work. The reason I really love this music video (and album, Too Bright) is because of it’s density. It is full and tangible with meaning and it is uncomfortable, odd and flamboyant and it is the epitome of Perfume Genius. Take a look at this video if you haven’t, and more importantly, have a thorough listen through his collection of work.
