I love how everyone ends up looking so joyful and dancing together. And the man waiting achingly in the room, seeing the car lights expectantly, is so intense and raw. Perfect representation of longing and anticipation. Hot video all around.
I love everything Austra does. They strike such a great balance of being artful and challenging, but still wholly enjoyable and with a beating heart. This video is fantastic!
This is such a great video, and yet it is such a sad one. Those small reminders of fleeting happiness make the endless ocean that is loneliness a much more poignant one.
I don't understand why people dislike this EP. Austra has always been about delicate arrangements at brooding tempos with haunting vocals singing vulnerable lyrics, and this EP does that. Yes, it's less pop and more vibe than Olympia was, but if anything that's a return to the debut and shows a band comfortable with itself. Habitat is as quietly emotional as some of their best songs like The Beast, and Hulluu is wonderfully hypnotic and, while not their best, one of their most fun songs. The instrumental track is eh, Bass Drum Dance is good but not stand-out, but in my opinion this EP is strong for what it is and all it does is make me want more, more, more, which is how I've felt for the two and a half years that I've loved this band.
LYRICS Deep down that was your all that I had Dangling into the bed, I pray I'm there I can't find the words to break your curse Something inside the book or it bursts It's wasn't I, I found the knife Buried inside the bed, the looks of love I want you I need you, brother I want you I need you, brother Who would've thought anything gone tonight Is young and mine Feeling extreme, I want you to breathe The rest of your own fire Diving into the bed, the night is young tonight Even in space I look for your face A spark or the light, baby I want you I need you, brother I want you I need you, brother Coming through, connection with you It makes my soul aroused Unspoken like a machine The force and the fire Ease through, I found it in you The animals are there Shimmering through the evil in you The dark is in the dark I want you I need you I want you I need
Been here since the beginning. Over a year and a half. You will always be my favorite band Austra!!! I've gone to so many concerts. You guys are legend! Love you!!!!
Austra en Habitat nos permite ingresar a un mundo exclusivo que ella crea a través de los beats y su voz, como un viaje de Ayahuasca en donde los Ícaros son el medio de transporte de la mente. El resto del disco es una incursión de sonidos que solo se podrían escuchar en este pequeño mundo creado por Austra, sonidos que solo tienen sentido para el que habita en el sitio, como los sonidos de las aves que rompen el silencio de las noches en lo más profundo de la selva. Yo definitivamente hubiese hecho otro video, pero este corto es muy genial, es otra forma muy válida de sentir la música.
I sort of suspected that the two women would like each other lol but um this is such a powerful message, that women can be together and a boy can love whoever he wants. I think that's the message?? And the lady singing is just a nurse (like the "typical" woman job), while the people in the video are breaking stereotypes. Idk if stereotypes is the right word.
Austra is playing a cleaner at the motel. And what do you mean just a nurse? That’s a very respected profession that involves intelligence, critical thinking, ability to act fast without panic, emotional and physical strength. And that’s just human nurses.
Austa mentioned that she made a simple album to be mixed by other musicians. Also artists have to perform the same songs over and over and want something they can enjoy and vary and mix when they play live. Austra is also a band, of 5 or 6?? Lots more to say, but ppl figure it out any way. Wow. Lots of clever comments, on every page, from the Austra audience!
+Brazilian Batata Tem razão brazilian, esse vídeo é mt bom mesmo. Curto muito a cena com as duas coroas. A música então é orgásmica. Austra são conhecidos aí no Brasil?
+Cláudia Borralho a austra é uma banda underground,que está fora padrões comerciais e da mídia,é uma banda de talento que merecia mais reconhecimento,resumo,deveria ser.
The video explores diversity in intimacy and demonstrates three separate scenarios. Everyone deserves to love the way they choose, to love within your natural habitat.
I don't understand where people are getting an "incest" vibe...I hope I'm not the only one who understands that, the word "brother", in this song, is in the friendly terms ( as in "What's up, brother?"), not the person's ACTUAL BROTHER! Give Austra some credit, guys...
I LOVE this video, and the realness of it, but I don't know how I'm supposed to feel about the businessman and his... um... hookup. The age gap seriously makes me uncomfortable, and it's implied that it was a paid act. I guess I enjoy how it shows there can be joy in even an act like that, but it's still hard to escape the undertones of exploitation there, even if the reasons for it are that both men are just lonely.
Well, any sexual act with an underage (the choice of protagonist makes it clear that he was made to look underage in the video) is sexual assault. The line is very clear. This can't be too romanticized as it isn't at all. One take advantage of the other not knowing at all. So I hope that by showing this, is to show how uncomfortable it actually is and that's how it should be - uncomfortable. I personally found it a bit triggering and I'm not a boy or man who's lived this. I love Austra and I know they don't banalize this, but it can be triggering.

So deeply human, sensitive and fragile. A wonderful videoclip promoting the exciting song! Well done Austra!
This film is so gorgeous and says so much. I absolutely adore Matt Lambert's work.
What film
I love everything Austra does. They strike such a great balance of being artful and challenging, but still wholly enjoyable and with a beating heart. This video is fantastic!
This is such a great video, and yet it is such a sad one. Those small reminders of fleeting happiness make the endless ocean that is loneliness a much more poignant one.
This video made me start listening to Austra.
+kahane was right same )))))
I just love the song, The lyrics, The beats and of course, the videoclip.
I absolutely love this video! It's very likely my favourite video that you've done since "Beat and the Pulse" and "Spellwork". Beautifully shot! :)

I think this is the most beautiful thing I have seen in weeks.

Milion likes from me! You don't getting forget about you Austra. Love it!
I'm TRULY happy to find this. The video is both beautiful and intriguing, It has a gorgeous photography, and the song just floats on you. Amazing.
LYRICS
Deep down that was your all that I had
Dangling into the bed, I pray I'm there
I can't find the words to break your curse
Something inside the book or it bursts
It's wasn't I, I found the knife
Buried inside the bed, the looks of love
I want you
I need you, brother
I want you
I need you, brother
Who would've thought anything gone tonight
Is young and mine
Feeling extreme, I want you to breathe
The rest of your own fire
Diving into the bed, the night is young tonight
Even in space I look for your face
A spark or the light, baby
I want you
I need you, brother
I want you
I need you, brother
Coming through, connection with you
It makes my soul aroused
Unspoken like a machine
The force and the fire
Ease through, I found it in you
The animals are there
Shimmering through the evil in you
The dark is in the dark
I want you
I need you
I want you
I need
Gracias
Thanks but dosnt look right lol
Could it be "the BEST of your own fire"?
Marvelous, this video is a peace of art!
Been here since the beginning. Over a year and a half. You will always be my favorite band Austra!!! I've gone to so many concerts. You guys are legend! Love you!!!!

I think she cleans the motel and she's kinda telling the stories about people that stay the night there

The Noodle Fish true! I had the exact same thought😶😁
The Noodle Fish if it's a paid act , maybe they represent contrast between "I need you" and "I want you" :)
