WATCH: Bastille preview Wild World
The British band released ‘Good Grief’ last week as the lead single from their forthcoming second album Wild World.
“We were excited to be able to work with NYSU (Wild Beasts, New Order, Philip Selway) on the video which was shot over 6 or so days in Madrid,” explained frontman Dan Smith.
“It is like a mad visual Rubik’s Cube that takes a load of archetypal narrative scenarios and then twists and collides them together.
“We wanted to make something fun and chaotic and surreal that would serve as a fittingly odd accompaniment to the song.”
‘Good Grief’ was released last Friday (June 17) and immediately climbed into the Top 10 on iTunes in the UK.
Wild World – which will be the follow-up to 2013 debut Bad Blood – will be released later this year.
