A simple beautiful truth

Button up your parka for the new video from Wild Beasts. A Simple Beautiful Truth sees the Kendal quartet travelling o'er the valleys and 'cross the dales in pursuit of what can only be described as a giant glowing umbrella.

Initially, they appear to be moving in a bizarre synchronised dance but, in a lovely touch from directors Klaus Thymann & Mike Hughes, it turns out they're spelling out "A Simple Beautiful Truth" in sign language.

See it with your own eyes below.

The video was filmed on Hay Bluff in Wales, which means that's Lord Hereford's Knob in the background. No matter how old I get, that's guaranteed to make me laugh.
