VIDEO: Slow Club - "Two Cousins"

Sheffield duo Slow Club released an absolutely stellar debut two years ago with Yeah So, and they're back, releasing their sophomore album, Paradise, on September 13th via Moshi Moshi. Below is the music video for new single "Two Cousins" from the new album. While relatively simplistic, it's quite entertaining and incredibly heartwarming. Fittingly, the two men featured in this beautifully shot black and white piece look as though they might just be cousins. The classic swing/jazz dance moves capture the song's reassuring, celebratory sound. What's most memorable about the video, though, is the way in which it touches upon sentimentality in a playful but heartfelt way with nothing more than the poeticism that lies in movement.
