Braids

"Plath Heart" (live in a paintball rink)

After taking on the world with their well-received debut Native Speaker earlier this year, Montreal-via-Calgary indie experimenters Braids have just released an unconventional performance video that sees them play their song "Plath Heart" smack dab in the middle of a paintball rink.

The clip, which can be streamed below, is wonderfully shot as part of the Rock Ton series from Scene 1425. Braids bring it with a top notch performance of the song, and the backdrop, normally a scene of explosive carnage, lends an empty eeriness to the whole thing.

Native Speaker is available now from Flemish Eye.
