Video: Besnard Lakes – “Color Yr Lights In” (NSFW)

Okay, this video is completely creepy and terrifying. Shot in slow motion and directed by Montreal aritsts the Sanchez Brothers, the video depicts a man struggling with mental illness as he roams through the dark night of city, encountering prostitutes, breaking into a pool, and generally losing his grip. The lead is played by Martin Dubreuil, who does an amazing job of portraying a man on the brink with no words at all. His final, fading, maniacal smile as he shudders is imagery that will stick with you for days. The song is culled from the band’s excellent album Until In Excess Imperceptible UFO.
