[@matthewbell7535]

Fuckin love how the cinematography always centers on which part of the instrumental is at the forefront of what’s happening at each part of the song, just like how I envision a music video would be when just listening to the song without visuals. When the drum fill or drum transition is the center of focus, the video has it keyed up perfectly, and the same for the bass and vocals. Every time you’re supposed to be paying attention to any one aspect of the song, that’s the band member the video is focusing on. Fuckin beautifully scripted video and probably one of my favorite music vids because of it. Lines up with the actual notes and drums being played perfectly. Got a full blowner watching that ride cymbal close up
