The Nils

"Love to Hate" (video)

BY Gregory AdamsPublished May 16, 2016

After taking more than a few years off, Montreal punk vets the Nils are back with their first album in close to three decades. The group's Shadows and Ghosts is out now, and the Quebec-based foursome are promoting the record's "Love to Hate" with a visual salute to their hometown.

The video bounces between shots of the group giving the rock-centric cut an amped-up run-through at a local bar, and a collage of sights from the streets of Montreal. You'll recognize the site of the Atwater Tunnel or a Habs jersey on an otherwise naked stone cherub. You can also peep the band taking time out of their day to deface posters and play soccer on a leaf-filled field.

The video for the group's mischievous new tune can be found below.

Tour dates:

06/23-26 Montebello, QC - Amnesia Rockfest
