“Foreign Cinema is one of the few San Francisco bands to create something original and uninhibited.”
San Francisco Chronicle
With a flicker of an 8mm reel, Foreign Cinema has created an audio visual soundtrack with influences cross pollinating elements of shoegaze, electronica, post-punk and dub. The band’s noir sound balances light and dark, with ethereal warmth and interjected groove to create a romantically dark world guided by interpretive lyrics about the human condition.

Greetings!
Foreign Cinema's been chipping away over the last few months at our debut full feature music video for "Airport" from the forthcoming full length album "Monochromatic".
We have collaborated with Ryan Coseboom (of Halou and Stripmall Architecture) and have commissioned his video production skills to bring you this video.
Dim the lights, kick on the play button, and Enjoy!
much love,
foreign cinema
