Zwan - Honestly (video)

Oh, Billy. You were far too happy and bordering on well adjusted with this phase of your musical career; your adolescent, angst-laden core fans couldn't understand. Poor sods.

Zwan's debut album was also its swan (Zwan?) song. This was the only video I ever saw by them, for the lead-off single, Honestly. It was a watchable clip, with a few things done right (appropriate focus given to the only decent looking creature in the outfit, bassist Paz Lenchantin being the most notable) and everything else being very run of the mill. Lots of pseudo-moody lighting in blue tones, or starlight backdrops which always seem to make me think of "If they even made them, what would Hawkwind videos look like?", and a few rather eye-catching sweeps with a circular performance view (3rd panel moving clockwise from top inthe image here).

Now you are back to almost posturingly dreary and even taking out full page ads to old band members to reform the Pumpkins while you release tepid, sterile solo efforts. You'll figure it out eventually.
