Opening scene was great. Looks good. Not much else to say. Feels like we've been seeing this haute electro mystic aesthetic for a couple years now.
It was fun, I feel the main character could have been better casted, someone with stronger more weather beaten features, for that post apocalyptic disco fever future times sake.
Hi-end commercialized version of Tintori?
I like the sci-fi vibe... however the 'New Rave' thing is a little behind the times and used but it all kind of works.
Judging from the nonsensical plot and type of effects I'm thinking it's the same directors as the last Yeasayer video?
I also think the opening scene got me excited but there really wasn't enough of a pay off or follow through.
That was great. You can see it on vimeo:
Wonder how Yeasayer is paying for these videos?

fucking awesome. i was hoping they would pick up where the last vid left off though..
Is this on MTV? The chorus rocks, the photography's great, I paid no attention to the 'story' but didn't get bored, I thought the sfx were kind of a silly afterthought.
