New Architecture In Helsinki Video - "Heart It Races"

Architecture's master plan for the first single from Places Like This has included a gaggle of remixes and sending us vid pics with love from Mexico City, where director Kris Moyes led the sextet in search for environs conducive to the track's globe-spanning groove. The result of their sojourn is a mock doc, with the Aussies playing a glow-in-the-dark tribe of spirit-seeking natives, filmed in part at the famous Teotihuacán -- which means "place of those who have the road of the gods" in Nahuatl and actually kinda sorta sheds light on the clip's conceit.

I wasn't sure about the song at first, but it's growing on me. I love the video.

The video was alright. Boring a bit, but the song is ace.

Fantastic song.
Ok video, the best bit is the end which reminds me of the end of Usher's thong song. And that can't be a bad thing.

I can never figure out whether this song is about love, religion, or a really awesome mind altering drug...prolly all of thee above.
