The Weeknd has shared a video for the track "Gasoline" from his new album Dawn FM.

The eerie video shows Abel Tesfay wearing the old-man makeup from his album cover and getting into a car crash as bugs crawl all over his radio. He then joins some sort of an apocalyptic rave/orgy, where his younger and older selves get into a disturbing fight. It's an unsettling counterpoint to the darkly fun synthpop tune.

The video was directed by Matilda Finn, who also created the Dawn FM video. Watch it below.
