American Football – “My Instincts Are The Enemy” Video
Reunited emo legends American Football came out with their self-titled sophomore album last year, and now they’ve followed up their oddly moving “I’ve Been Lost For So Long” video with another one for “My Instincts Are The Enemy.” This one, as it happens, is just as oddly moving. The entire cast is either Japanese or Japanese-American, and it follows a Japanese character living in Illinois and missing his home, while people in Japan lip-sync and dance to the song. Director Chris Strong filmed the video in Toluca, Illinois and around Japan. Check it out below, via NPR.
American Football is out now on Polyvinyl.
