Justice Drop Eighties Anime-Inspired Video for Tame Impala-Featuring ‘Neverender’

Justice have paired their Tame Impala-featuring song “Neverender,” a breakout track from the French duo’s latest LP Hyperdrama, with a new video inspired by Eighties anime.

Directed by Masanobu Hiraoka along with Justice’s longtime collaborators Pascal Teixeira and Armand Beraud, the “Neverender” visual also draws influence from the psychedelic works of legendary French artist Moebius.

“’The Neverender’ music video gave us the perfect opportunity to channel many of our visual influences, all while making them more distinctive through Masanobu Hiraoka’s unique reinterpretation,” Justice said in a statement. 

“We drew initial inspiration from the title sequences of the 1980s anime we grew up on, which set the visual tone for the video. From there, other key images from our teenage years naturally came into play. Whether it was the work of Moebius, psychedelic art, graphic novels, or iconic film posters that fascinated us, Masanobu’s style seamlessly absorbed and unified them all.”

The new video arrives just days before Justice will release a digital EP dedicated to “Neverender,” boasting new remixes of the track by Kaytranada and Keinemusik’s Rampa, as well as an extended version of the song.
