THE KILLS are marking their 10th anniversary this February with a gorgeous new single, and hauntingly emotional music video to match.

THE KILLS are marking their 10th anniversary this February, and in celebration have released a gorgeous new single, and hauntingly emotional music video to match.'The Last Goodbye' is directed by Oscar nominated actress Samantha Morton, and it's her very first music video. The video is as simple and elegant as the track it celebrates; set in an old school photo booth, it features Alison Mosshart and Jamie Hince posing in tribute to their longstanding friendship.

Mosshart emphatically described the clip by saying: "It was an honor to work with Samantha Morton on this Casablanca-esque, silent-film-esque, Americana photo booth.. piece of surrealism/ realism/ story time tell-tale-ism... The Last Goodbye. It's a doorway into the future of the fatal past-tense. Get it?"

There's something bittersweet and ethereal about this clip, and it has us hoping that their tenth year will not mark the end. Head to Nowness for a bit of the back story on how this wonderful coupling began.
