Video: Perfume Genius, “Dark Parts”

April 26, 2012


Sucks that too many people only use one day a year, Mother's Day, to tell their momma how much they love them. Perfume Geniusmost recent video featured a tender, sexy encounter with humongous gay porn star Arpad Miklos, but on the second clip from his sophomore album, Put Your Back N 2 It, he flips the script from themes of romance into an ode to his mom, including her in the video for "Dark Parts." They play Scrabble, pet dogs, act like they've been through some rough times together, maybe screaming matches around the dining room table or painful coming-out-of-the-closet sob sessions, but now they're in a good enough place to climb trees and tell one another, everyday, that they care. Porn stars and boyfriends aside, it's the most important relationship you've got.
