If you're the kind of gangly four-eyes that tends to get picked on by neighbourhood bullies, the new Protomartyr video may cause you a bit of PTSD. The clip for The Agent Intellect's "Dope Cloud" is full of antagonizing eggings, unwanted fireworks displays and youthful panic.
Directed by Lance Bangs, the video begins with a shaggy-haired teen going for an afternoon jog through a forest. Or, at least it seems that way at first, before we realize he's being chased by a bunch of balaclava-topped terrors.
Considering the wide open, suburban space he's darting through, hopping in the outright relic that is the local phone booth could be considered a grave mistake.
You'll find the disconcerting survival-of-the-fittest scene below.
In addition to a clutch of previously announced tour dates, including a stop in Vancouver on March 8, the band have now added more concerts to an already hefty international schedule. You'll find info on upcoming shows in Guelph, Toronto, Montreal, Calgary and more down below.
