Jack White-Guested Rome Track ?Two Against One? Gets A Video

A collaboration set to evoke the spirit of the 1960s? Italian movie soundtracks, Daniele Luppi & Danger Mouse?s unique musical pairing for the Rome project brought a brooding, twisted darkness to life on record, with the help of the likes of Jack White, Norah Jones and more.

The album itself defies modern convention, a musical period piece that gives one a distinct sense of time displacement. It?s a great listen, but the high point is, indeed, White?s performance on Two Against One. And now, a video has arrived for the track:

Directed by Chris Milk, the video features stunning animations by artist Anthony Francis Sheppard. According to Milk, the video is only a small piece of a much larger project to come.

?Myself, Brian (aka Danger Mouse), and the producers Anthony Bregman (Eternal Sunshine) and Megan Ellison (True Grit), are currently developing the Rome project into a theatrical feature film. While the video for ?Two Against One? is hand-drawn cell animation, the film would be live action. The music video is essentially the fever dream of the antagonist of the story. It?s mostly his backstory, his life before the tale we see in the movie. If you have a fast computer with Chrome installed you can also see the interactive lucid dream of the protagonist at www.Ro.me. These pieces are sort of narrative breadcrumbs that lead you to the eventual larger story. More to come soon.?
