We Were Promised Jetpacks
Scotland’s We Were Promised Jetpacks have released a video for “A Part of It.” It’s the third part of a video trilogy from the band and director Ben Cowie. In the ominous clip a woman is running down a country lane and is at first followed by the camera, both behind her and above her. Is she being chased and if so, by who? You can attempt to find out for yourself below, although the video offers few answers. The song is taken from the band’s 2014 full-length, Unraveling, which is out now via FatCat.
“We were interested in the director’s ideas to tell a story in three installments and try something a little different,” the band said about the three videos in a press release. “The videos hopefully capture some of the themes that we tried to portray in our album. We wanted something where tension would build and where there would be something sinister bubbling under the surface.”
Check out the video below and read our 2014 interview with the band or the guest blog post guitarist Michael Palmer wrote for us last year on professional wrestling.
