Guillemots are back with a new album, a new single and a video that suggests a Scouts camping trip gone wrong
There's something deeply disturbing about forests, especially ones that feature Guillemots dodging in and out of the trees. This is just one of the death-defying stunts they pull off in the video (a Guardian exclusive) for the first single to be taken from their third album, Walk the River. Propelled by a fuzz-guitar riff and singer Fyfe Dangerfield's sprightly harmonies it starts off pretty jolly, but all is not quite as it seems, as Dangerfield explains: "I think in some way it's about a mania within, caused by something external, and the conflict over whether to embrace this thing or just ignore it and crawl away into familiar comforts." The video is a trippy camping trip, all funky funghi, neon-flashing trees and lonely nights in tents. Just like Scout camp all over again.
The Basket is out on 10 April. Walk the River will follow on 18 April.
