Modern Jesus

Watch It

Portugal. The Man "Modern Jesus" (Elliott Sellers, dir.)

Director Elliott Sellers delivers a nicely shot and constructed performance video for "Modern Jesus" — which perhaps works as a nice match to the previous video for the song directed by AG Rojas, which was highly conceptural (and amazing). The setting instanly signifies Church, but there's also something about the video/song which brings to mind "Wonderwall" (maybe it's the glasses?) who were bigger than The Beatles and in turn bigger than Jesus. (I kid, of course) 

Watch It

Portugal The Man "Modern Jesus" (AG Rojas, dir.)

Welcome to America. Land of guns, drugs, oil and booty, filled with geniuses, fools, dreamers, gamblers and daredevils of many myriad backgrounds and situations. Where birth and death, destruction and salvation happen every single day.

This epic production features content shot over a 20 day period  spanning 15 states, with a specific focus on the poor places that normally get overlooked when you think of the rich wonders of the U.S.A.
