Arcade Fire air new video for 'You Already Know'

Taking a brief time out in touring the world and covering every single song under the sun, Arcade Fire have aired a brand new video for ‘You Already Know’, a Jonathan Ross-cameo’d song on new LP ‘Reflektor’.

The video is filmed in its entirety by Win Butler, and in a series of surrealist shots it shows traditional paintings singing along to the track, white-suited band members posing and holding mirrors up to the camera, and by the end Butler makes a quick star appearance in the form of a very elaborate selfie.

It’s about as low-budget as it gets by Arcade Fire’s standards, and it’s viewable below.

This week the band aired out a cover of Feist’s ‘I Feel It All’ during a Calgary gig. DIY rounded up the best and worst of the ‘Reflektour’ covers by rating efforts on a scale of 1 to 5 papier mache heads.

Catch-up with Aussie producer Flume’s monster, ten-minute remix of ‘Afterlife’, shared earlier this week.
