Django Django have unveiled a pretty great video for 'Hail Bop' (dir. by Daniel Swan) - which sort of looks like Second Life, but with a chillwave add-on pack.
Director Daniel Swan explains it in a bit more detail:
"The concept was really to have these people in this architectural setting and have there lives destroyed in some way, or maybe carried upwards to a higher plain by an event that they couldn't control. The meaning of the song was to have this event that comes along once in a lifetime but then you miss it, so that was the starting off point for having this strange sisyphus figure rolling this comet like sphere past all these people and carrying them off somewhere at the end of it."
The single is released on August 13th via Because Music.
