Arcade Fire have shared a video for “Unconditional I (Lookout Kid)” from WE. It stars a wiggly inflatable who dances around in some fields, plays with some kids, and tries to make something of their life. Watch it below.
The video was directed by Benh Zeitlin (Beasts of the Southern Wild) and edited by Affonso Gonçalves (Todd Haynes’ The Velvet Underground). It follows the band’s performance of the track, along with “The Lightning I, II,” on Saturday Night Live this weekend, where the inflatables also made an appearance. Last week, they announced a tour of North America with Beck and of Europe with Feist.
In March, Arcade Fire dropped “The Lightning I, II,” their first single in five years, with a video directed by Emily Kai Bock. The follow-up to 2017’s Everything Now was produced by Nigel Godrich, Win Butler, and Régine Chassagne. Find the rest of the credits and stream the album here.
