Blanck Mass (the solo project of Fuck Buttons’ Benjamin John Power) is releasing a new album, World Eater, on March 3 via Sacred Bones. Previously the electronic musician shared the album’s first two singles, “Please” and “Silent Treatment.” Now “Please” has a video. Michael Tan directed the strange computer animated clip, which you can watch below.

Tan had this to say about the video in a press release: “Blanck Mass (Ben) and I looked at old CGI ‘80s movies like Lawnmower Man and 3D animated internet memes, which are far different from my polished, hyper-real 3D renderings I usually create. Drawing from these inspirations, the result is a bit of a mix between Lo-Fi and a role-playing adventure game. With the current political climate, it’s hard not to be concerned about the future of the planet and the population as a whole. There seems to be no genuine concern from governments about the state of the earth, climate change, or the future. The video personifies this concern within its characters.”
