The immensely popular Manchester anti-folk duo Crywank are excited to share "Part 2," their first ever official music video today. The song comes from File Under: Music’s ongoing video series, One Single At A Time, an eclectic project that takes a unique approach to the "singles club" idea. Crywank have established themselves as one of the UK's "best kept secrets" with a rapid audience that has lead the project's YouTube plays into the millions, and they join the series with a stunning new video directed by Seth Smith. "Part 2" captures an ominous door-to-door salesman selling life insurance with a conclusion that's both dark and perpetually sad. Smith's video is the perfect compliment to Crywank’s gorgeously heartbreaking songwriting.

Speaking about the video, Noisey said, "Rather than being a literal reflection of the lyrics, director Seth Smith has paired the track with a visual story of its own, both rooting themselves in feelings of loneliness, liberation and unease."
