Weekend’s second album Jinx offers taut post-punk and bleakly hazed dreamscapes in spades — we heard “Mirrors” earlier this year, and now there’s a fittingly disquieting video for “Rosaries.” The song itself is a breathy, beautiful gush warmly reverbed and powered by a strong kick. But paired with the clip above, which is directed by singer/bassist Shaun Durkan and guitarist Kevin Johnson, the song feels downright haunted. Therein, we follow the lonely existence of a man who seems to long for a life that he used to have, but who’s consigned to a lonely, nocturnal existence. Beware: “Rosaries” has brief nudity. Jinx is out now on Slumberland.
