The Bats
started the year off by releasing their ninth album,
The Deep Set,
and now they finish it with a new video.
Directed by Marc Swadel it sees the four-piece performing the track
Busy (off
The Deep Set)
in Christchurch Emigre, James Atkinson's, practice room under the arches of
London's Haggerston Station. Filmed the day before their final show in the
Tufnel Dome, the onscreen triptych also features footage from
around London during the band's UK/EU summer tour earlier this year.
"Marc Swadel has
done an amazing job of editing together band footage with some “busy” film of
London's underground and overground using a wide triptych format"- Paul Kean, The Bats
Five years after the
release of their last critically acclaimed album, The Bats returned
with album number nine, The
Deep Set earlier this year. The album continues The
Bats’ 21st century resurgence. Yes, it is The Bats, so the chords still
chug, the guitars chime, ring, and jangle, the melodies are clear and
memorable, the rhythm section is unstoppable. But the band mines the darker,
deeper sound that 2011’s Free All the Monsters revealed.
