Video of the Moment #2917: Slaves

I think at some point in our lives, we’ve all imagined what our musical heroes must have been like as children. Slaves decided to take this very idea and make a music video for their song ‘Photo Opportunity’ of their younger alter-egos carousing Tunbridge Wells as we might have dreamt of them doing. Or at least this what Isaac and Laurie thought they should be doing as best buddies. As I mentioned in my review from last summer, ‘Photo Opportunity’ is one of the more intriguing songs on their third album ‘Acts of Fear and Love’ because it provides surprising snapshots into their feelings of insecurity and lack of direction that you don’t expect from two blokes from Kent who have so many fans. Watch the heart-tugging promo video below; the single officially drops on the 22nd of February on Virgin EMI. Slaves’ third album ‘Acts of Fear and Love’ is available now. We’ve written quite a bit on Slaves over the years; the full archive can be accessed starting from here.
