Cold War Kids have done something very cool
MTVMusic is the exclusive home for the debut of the Cold War Kids’ hyper-interactive new video, “I’ve Seen Enough”. The video, directed by Tool of North America’s Sam Jones, (Wilco’s “I Am Trying to Break Your Heart”), features 4 distinctly different versions of the song played by the band’s 4 members. Each member was filmed on a darkly lit stage, playing their parts on vibraphone, guitar, bass, keyboard, standup bass, & more. These versions were recorded so the parts can be mixed together or played on their own.
Every change the fan makes happens in real time, including every stop, start, or mid-stream instrument change. Without skipping a beat, a fan can silence everything but the vocals & bring in the drums, or start with the full band, pull the keyboard & add the xylophone, or sweep away the standup bass at the last minute & cue the bass guitar for the song’s closing notes.
