Lusts 'Illuminations' by Youth Hymns

David Knight - 9th Oct 2015

Youth Hymns latest magnum opus for Lusts saw them heading to Blackpool - frankly the only place to go for a track called Illuminations - in a classic Ford Capri. And has the Golden Mile ever looked so groovy and psychedelic as it does here? Probably not.

But then YH, vying for the mantle of busiest directors in music videos, were "jacked up on travel sickness pills"...    

YOUTH HYMNS:

“After the crushing realisation that the budget didn’t quite stretch to a week-long getaway to light-filled Las Vegas, we headed to Blackpool for the night in an old Ford Capri.

“Jacked up on travel sickness pills, we ducked down, sitting in the back of the moving car and both monitored and remotely controlled a 360 degree spinning camera fixed to the vehicle.

“The police eventually got wind, due to the in-car lighting and embarrassingly loud exhaust. We were getting ready for a life behind bars, however once we discovered the copper had a soft spot for Capris (as every red blooded middle-aged male does), he sent us on our way.”
