David Bowie

"★" (video)

Earlier today, art rock legend David Bowie revealed the cover art for his forthcoming album Blackstar (a.k.a. ★). But as promised, he has more treats in store for us, as he's also shared the album's self-titled single via a new music video.

The track's a suitably strange one, with Bowie crooning atop busy percussion, dreamy synths and sparse saxophones. It's an out-there, dream-like number and it comes with a suitably weird video from Johan Renick.

Adding to the magic, Bowie has also shared an unpacking video for the album's vinyl packaging. You'll find that below as well.

Blackstar arrives on January 8, which is also the artist's 69th birthday.
