Im quite modest barkoviak. I just dont like to see Giacobbis work dismissed as crazy random shit that will never be great because it doesnt mean anything Comprende?

It is quite obvious that you cannot get over yourself.

disillusioned man sitting next to a clock-spirit of the times funeral-death of traditional culture One child family-low birth rates in developed countries-no more big Italian family Thats how Giacobbes abstract symbolism reads for me. Maybe thats just coming from an Italian perspective. Of course your interpretation is just as valid.

eye exam cards-blind leading the blind 7 foot blonde freak model-pop culture is absurd-Giacobbe knows fashion Falling cross-Christianity no longer social force in Europe The cross is framed behind billowing smokestacks-industrialization replaced spirituality Cross pulled down by U.S soldiers-iconic Joe Rosenthal photo at iwo jima-imperialism Light girl-dark girl-good-evil-lamb represents innocence and vulnerability exotic gold dancers-false idolatry-one is literally a golden calf

Godlike nazi-represents the demagoguery that led industrialized nations into war Franco,Hitler, and Mussolini are products of democratic populism Lingerie represents the seduction of the hypnotized crowd Pigs-corruption,greed Albinos-? Fat chicks-well obesity has become a problem in post industrial Britain Bombed out arch ways-roman ruins White doves-the allusion of peace A riot cop kicking a soccer ball to a chanting crowd-Giacobbe knows what happens at Italian soccer games

then elaborate so it makes sense to all of us. i'm having a hard time understanding how albinos and fat chicks represent that..the godlike nazi in sexy lingerie as well.

machiavelli1984 (December 30th, 2008 @ 8:04 am)

supposedly its about the downfall of western civilization. makes sense to me

yeah i dont think it has any meaning either but that doesn't mean its not a great video. they were obviously smart when choosing all that crazy random shit, with everyone wondering what the big meaning of it is.

I gotta say when I first saw the video back when it came out on mtv, it made no sense at all but I fukin' love this track and the video's awesome, director Andrea Giacobbe's film work is a different style that I like. Check out some other work he's done.

This is a cool video visually and viscerally but it will never be great because I don't think it has any meaning. WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN? The girl at the end with the pig smiling at the multi-armed Nazi soldier. wtf is the point of that beyond looking kinda cool?
