WATCH: Two Fingers – Vengeance Rhythm

Welcome to the imagination of a budding homicidal maniac. “Vengeance Rhythm” tells the story of Mr. Teddy, who is on a bloodthirsty rampage, ripping off faces, disembowling other bears, decapitating rubber duckies, and shooting everything in little Tommy’s room to gory smithereens. No toy is safe. If you ever wondered what it would look like to hand Barbie a live grenade, watch this video.

Set to the brutally crashing soundscape of Amon Tobin’s alter-ego, Two Fingers, this ultra-violent and delightfully tongue-in-cheek video was created by stop-frame animator and director Chris Ullens. The track itself is somewhat reminiscent of dubstep, but by no means fits into any such category. It’s part of his recent album Stunt Rhythms, released on Big Dada/Ninja Tune and the second from Two Fingers.

Tobin calls his Two Fingers alias “something that’s clearly just me venting…I’m just doing whatever works and banging it out in the process of a day and getting it out of my system.” That definitely comes across in both the track and the video – Two Fingers and Teddy are both blowing off some serious steam.

As an artist who’s run the gamut with innovative explorations of genres and performance styles, this Brazilian whiz produced 3 albums in 2011, plus original scores for films like Taxidermia and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, and even had some of his selected works sampled by the London Metropolitan Orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall.

WARNING: This video contains graphic violence, so be sure to watch multiple times in case you miss any of it. And remember kiddies, play nice.
