MUSIC VIDEO: Shabazz Palaces – “An Echo From The Hosts That Profess Infinitum”

Just shy of two years since the release of their debut album, Black Up, Seattle’s experimental hip-hop duo, Shabazz Palaces, have just gotten around to releasing the visuals for my favorite track off the album, “An Echo From The Hosts That Profess Infinitum.”

In a fitting black and white video directed by Joris Grelet, the excellently edited visual accompaniment to Black Up‘s second track features two assassins wielding their weapons of choice near the ocean. You can view the video immediately after the jump along with the duo’s brief stint of summer tour dates primarily spanning Asia then returning to the Pacific Northwest.

If you never got a chance to experience Black Up, check it out on their Sub Pop profile.
