Biting Elbows: Extremely Violent First Person POV Music Video

March 23, 2013

Ok, so hold on a second. Let me explains a few things.

Note 1: The gratuitous boob shot still image here wasn’t my idea – it’s the frame from the video that was chosen by the director.
Note 2: Despite the boob shot, the video is worth watching.
Note 3: That is, if you’re ok with a lot (and I mean a lot) of violence.

The music video is for a band called Biting Elbows. The whole thing is shot from a head cam, and involves a lot of running, jumping, parkour, and what looks to have been a few gallons of fake blood.

The whole thing smacks of an action movie, and despite all the quick head turns and shakiness… it didn’t end up making me nauseous. It made me wonder how long it would be, until we saw a full-length movie shot from this perspective.

Just happened to see that the band had an initial version of the office escape, which you can see in this video.

Seeing this shot from the first person POV reminded me of a video I saw a long time ago called Cinnamon Chasers.
