In the age of music videos becoming short films and entire visual albums being released by an influential elite, it's rare that a song's video counterpart can stand its ground without at least some sort of spectacle.

In the video for "Crisis," Anohni plays her words over a single take of a woman from the shoulders up, who visibly feels every lyric and every ripple in the haunting beat. Take five minutes to not only listen to the song, but watch the video, where the stationary camera forces a focus on the music and song itself. Watch below.
