VIDEO PREMIERE: THE WEEKND | GASOLINE

The Weeknd has released the latest video from his recently released album "Dawn FM." Following the visual for “Sacrifice,” the “Gasoline” film features Abel Tesfaye and his elderly alter-ego (as pictured on the album art) cross paths at a surreal dance party, where, spooked, they trade punches before slipping back into the night. Like the clip for “Sacrifice,” the Matilda Finn-directed “Gasoline” video is primarily set amid a wild yet disturbing dance party, which the Weeknd’s old man character stumbles upon after a car crash. The man tries to make his way through the dancing crowds — which exhibit some profound living dead qualities — and he inevitably finds himself face to face with his younger self, the Weeknd. The meeting, however, quickly turns violent as the Weeknd savagely beats the older man with a nasty grin on his face. The Weeknd released "Dawn FM" the past Friday, Jan. 7, after announcing the album earlier in the week. The LP follows the singer’s 2020 smash, "After Hours," which features contributions from Tyler, the Creator, Lil Wayne, Quincy Jones, Jim Carrey, Max Martin, and Oneohtrix Point Never.
