Jesus, barely a second to recover from the tremulous rabble rousing anthem that was Lanterns, and they hit us with yet another tremulous rabble rousing anthem. I don’t know what post-apocalyptic nightmare Birds Of Tokyo are living in, but they seem to quite urgently require us to summon our courage and fight for the right as one. On a side note, what’s with all the hot teenage booty in the clip? Errant exposed bra straps and scarely-clad teenage arses in centre frame? I’m pretty sure Birds Of Tokyo are old enough to have fathered the girls so casually sexually objectified in the band’s music video.
