Neon Is The Name Of The Game For Lila Gold’s New Music Video
The latest music video from Lila Gold for China Chalet is a celebration of all aspects of her cult personality: fashion, fast cars, and beautiful people.
What strikes you first about the video is the terrific neon quality, reminiscent of a Nicolas Winding Refn film or ‘Spring Breakers.’ This tone perfectly matches the terrific clothing which is a showcase of slick Chinese biker jackets, thrift shop gems, and chic high fashion.
The video begins with Gold and her squad cruising around town in a stylish sports car before the group settle into a hotel room for a cigarette-fueled celebration. To add more retro appeal to the clip, low-fi VHS footage is spliced throughout, almost like a long lost tape of a forgotten night.
The song is a swaying chorus of slow, meandering drums, droning guitar noise, and twangy melodies. Meanwhile, the vocals of Gold soar across the track before the finale of the track breaks down to just the personal vocals of Gold almost saying farewell.
