Royal Blood
'Mountains at Midnight'
30 May 2023 3 mins 07s

Viewers sensitive to flashing lights should proceed with caution when viewing this kinetic promo for Royal Blood's 'Mountains at Midnight'. The monochrome effort depicts the sweatiest, most raucous gig you can imagine attending, bolstering the track's crunchy guitars and singer Mike Kerr's gleefully detached vocals by plunging viewers neck deep into a thrashing mosh pit.

Gig attendance is a contact sport in this universe, with writhing bodies crashing into each other to the song's driving beat. This is contrasted in canny fashion by director Milo Blake, who captures shots of the lead character in the room by themselves - so lost in the music there may as well be nobody else there. Passionate fans of the Sussex duo will recognise their own gig euphoria in the stumbling, ecstatic movements of an audience high on life.
