Fever Ray

Fever Ray is a Scandinavian music artist. After watching her music videos I wanted to mention it. One video that really stood out to me was for 'If I had a heart' that I first heard through the television show 'vikings'.

I like how the music's Scandinavian roots are reflected in a way with the boats and the fore torches. I also like the chopping and changing  there is an element of randomness to it but it's not so random its jarring, it still fits the mood and feel of the song.

I think music videos can be a great way of looking at the use of film because they are constructed around a piece of music rather than a narrative.
