Watch: Kirin J Callinan Unveils ‘Landslide’ Video

Everything’s upside-down in Australia. Whether this has any impact on the country’s musicians being able to make forward-thinking music like that of Kirin J Callinan is a more disputed issue, but Kirin’s starring in a new video which gives a nod to the upside-down rep of his home country.

Hanging from a rope into open water, the image is flipped to give the impression that Kirin’s below the water but completely bone-dry. He has fun with it too, trying to keep a good posture while strumming an acoustic guitar alongside the unconventional ballad that is ‘LANDSLIDE’.

Director Vincenzi Vandella had this to say about the filming:

‘It was actually a rather dangerous idea and more like torture but he was happy to submit himself to that pain and brutality. It’s a beautiful song, but I love how there’s very real suffering and emotion behind his performance in this simple clip. The guy is built pretty tough.’

Kirin J Callinan’s ‘EMBRACISM’ is out now.
