The treadmill thing (& even the dancing one they did before that) was
kind of fun but this new vid and the one they did of the same song with
the camouflaged marching bands, all seem a little too much, like they're
trying too hard. I start worrying when bands begin to care way more
about making videos, "going viral", Op Ed pieces and moving units,
rather than the music. And sadly I believe it's beginning to show with
OKGO. Haven't heard the new record but this single is terrible compared
to the band's previous work - what a repetitive, un-hooky, 4 chord
exercise.
