Los Campesinos! – “Avocado, Baby” Video
“It feels like I’m the host of a horrible game show,” sings Gareth Campesinos on the fired-up new Los Campesinos! single “Avocado, Baby.” The beginning of the song’s video finds him doing exactly that, trying to hold it together while acting as the face of an incomprehensible ’70s-style program called The Avocado Show. But things go from bad to worse, as occult forces take over the show. The whole thing, directed by Submarine star Craig Roberts, works in one continuous tracking shot. It does not make a whole lot of sense, but it’s still an impressive achievement. Check it out below.
The new Los Campesinos! album No Blues is out now on Wichita Recordings/Turnstile/Heart Swells.
