Video: Bastille - Good Grief

You know how directors sometimes take one isolated lyric from a song, and use that as the basis for a video? Well, in the case of Bastille's new single, that line seems to have been: "You might have to excuse me, I've lost control of all my senses."

Seriously, what the heck is this all about?


Frontman Dan Smith tried to describe the above chaos in a press release, saying: "[It] takes a load of archetypal narrative scenarios and then twists and collides them together. We wanted to make something fun and chaotic and surreal that would serve as a fittingly odd accompaniment to the song."

He also described it as a "mad visual Rubik’s Cube," which sounds great but means nothing.

Nice tune, though.
