Au Revoir Simone

"Knight of Wands" (video)

NYC synth trio Au Revoir Simone want you to add a little colour to their new video, literally. The girls' new clip for melancholy new wave number "Knights of Wand" doubles as a pretty awesome online colouring book.

Listening to the tune, you can do a quick paint-shop job to an illustration of the three-piece wandering around a castle. An animated ghost pops up in the verses to play a little organ, but for some reason, you just can't colour the guy. But you can add a shade or two to a napping cat, though the act does wake kitty from its slumber. Your call.

While the video morphs into a live-action section that finds Au Revoir Simone cooing together whilst tag-teaming a Roland Juno-60, by song's end, you can finish up your colouring job. As great as we think we did, we have no idea how to stick our laptops onto the Exclaim! fridge.

You can check out the kooky clip here.
