Royal Blood (who are nominated for seven awards at this month’s NME Awards 2015 with Austin, Texas), worked with Adult Swim’s Christy Karacas on the video as well as illustrator-turned-director David Wilson to create this f*cked up materpiece.
In a statement accompanying the video, Karacas said:
“The staging of the action was really important to me as I wanted to create a dynamic space filled with fast paced kinetic energy and movement that matched that of the song. I animated much of the action ‘straight ahead’ and let the music dictate the movements and ideas in a stream of consciousness way as opposed to pre-planning everything from the start. The unrelenting rhythm of the bass and drums of this song had everything to do with the animation that seemed to just flow out of my fingertips.”
