Wild Beasts air new Kate Moross-directed ‘Mecca’ video
Acid-washed clip keeps things in ‘The Present Tense’.
Wild Beasts are keeping things in ‘The Present Tense’ by airing a new video for ‘Mecca’.
Directed by Kate Moross, it matches up with the third single from Wild Beasts’ fourth record, rated five-stars by DIY earlier this year and out now on Domino.
The video pictures the band in an acid wash setting, pacing around in matching grey tees, drenched in luminous shades. It’s a perfectly good video, although there’s a danger it might start a new craze in tie dye t-shirts. Watch out, UK festivals…
Wild Beasts play the following UK dates:
JULY
03 London, Hyde Park (w/ Arcade Fire)
AUGUST
19 End of the Road Festival
SEPTEMBER
04-07 Bestival
