From one of my favorite releases last year, The New Year’s S/T album, comes a recently released (via Pitchfork TV) new video for the track “Seven Days and Seven Nights”. As a bonus it’s actually a new version of the song. They opted for a dark piano rather than the guitars. As a result the over all feeling of the lonely traveler is heightened. The imagery of the video also notches the effect up a bit with slow pans of airport life.
Here’s the original track:

I like the change to the piano intro. It has a nice somber effect to it and the video footage really blends well with it. The soft sound of the piano contrasts to the usually chaotic sounds of the airport to great effect.
