Watch: new (?) Black Lips video + live dates
- Artists:
- Black Lips »
Neither we nor Black Lips' label Vice are sure where this video came from but we’re both sure it’s worth a watch.
This video was made to accompany the idiot strains of Black Lips’ ‘Bad Kids’ and opts for a literal interpretation of the track. No 3D glasses or avant concept for this director – a 31-year-old known simply as ‘BoobySands’ – this footage concentrates on rioting kids from across the UK, while a Sing-along-Songs style happy face bobs across lyrics at the foot of the screen.
Hurling stones, breaking bones – see below, Disney:
