Perhaps some sort of veiled critique on the sheer volume of derrière in music videos lately, Arca has dropped his own butt-tacular clip for "Thievery".
Turning the hip-pop staple into a "Windowlicker"-esque circus of terror, the lead single from Arca's upcoming debut - Xen - gets creepy quick.
FKA twigs collaborator Jesse Kanda directed the clip. Perhaps that goes some way to explaining the confrontational nature.
Witn-ass the video below.
Xen is due out 3 November on Mute.
