David Bowie drops ‘Blackstar’ video

The track comes form Bowie’s new album of the same name.

Rock legend David Bowie has shared the 10 minute, epic video for his latest single, ‘Blackstar.’ Taken from his forthcoming Blackstar album, the dramatic video has been stylised simply as ‘★’ — a black star. Directed by Johan Renck —who has worked with the likes of Madonna, New Order, and The Knife — touches on themes like space, religion,  and death. With zombies, scarecrows and a levitating skeleton heading for the sun, the video is a testimony to Bowie’s eccentric legacy.

Running close to ten minutes, the track journeys from rich, psychedelic dark-pop, to venomous and atmospheric rock. A true surreal and lurid Bowie masterpiece.

Blackstar consists of seven tracks, and will hit shelves on 8th January.
