Perhaps it’s because Hinds didn’t expect their almost literally infectious brand of guitar pop to get quite as huge as it has, but their madly entertaining debut record Leave Me Alone’s lo-fi production values are now being regularly overrun by shiny, cool-as-hell videos. It’s all working, too, mostly because the Madrid four-piece take everything shiny and screw with it a little. The video for “Easy” rotted away into blood, guts, and spaghetti in high definition. It ruled.
Now, a month or so on, they’ve released the video for “Warts” and they still can’t have nice things. This time things don’t rot out so much as they turn in a flash of violence. Serious, beautifully shot, jealous rage. It’s underrated.
