Wild Beasts' new album Present Tense features a vibrant, synth-spiked sound, and now they've brought that colourful style to life with a video for "Mecca."
Directed by Kate Moross, the clip places the UK band in a surreal, animated landscape of flickering lines, hand-draw squiggles and rippling water. The whole thing is vibrantly colourful, with everything tinted hues of yellow, pink, orange and more.
