Watch: Ian Ferguson releases DIY video for new psych single “Love Crime”

Southern psych-rock songwriter Ian Ferguson has released the new groovy single "Love Crime", along with its music video. The track — which appears on Ferguson’s upcoming debut album State of Gold (out on July 26th) — channels a bit of The Beatles’ late discography, or even the more chilled-out ideas of Black Sabbath. A more contemporary comparison would be Mac DeMarco, perhaps, as the music video for the song has a bit of DeMarco’s knack for lo-fi and DIY production values. The Handicam-looking clip comes rife with low-budget aliens in cardboard triangle glasses, an old van, and old sci-fi film footage. It doesn’t take much to make a fun video, and Ferguson holds fast to that ethos with the clip for "Love Crime". Watch it below, and watch out for State of Gold which drops later this month. – Will Sisskind
