Taste Test: Neon Dreams confront the past in new video, ‘Life Without Fantasies’
The pop duo confront the past and finally learn what they want in life with their new video.
Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones
If you’ve grown up under the thumb of bullies or society, the world looks different. It just does. You seek avenues of being accepted, your efforts spent predominantly on proving yourself, and you then build this fantastical world of luxury that ultimately doesn’t mean much. Frank Kadillac, of Neon Dreams, confronts the past and various suppressed memories to fully free himself and uncover what he really wants in this life. In the “Life Without Fantasies” music video, directed by Kadillac and friend Alex Gayaso, the dream-pop pair (also including Adrian Morris) not only emerge with a new-found vibrancy but they pay homage to two great works of modern cinema, Napoleon Dynamite and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. “What is life without fantasies?”Kadillac proposes such existential questions with a smooth calmness, thus completely severing shallow dreams and desires. Their living their best life, and so should we.
“Life Without Fantasies” sparks the band’s new album, Sweet Dreams Till Sunbeams, out everywhere now.
