A lone and cornered protester outlasts the brutal blast of a police water cannon, in Matt Devine's affecting promo for Lo!Riled up by a system built on greed and oppression, we watch as the main character - played by Timothy Parsons - fights through an onslaught of water, armed with only a single brick, aggression and pure determination. The video for Salting The Earth is the second high-intensity collaboration between Matt Devine and the group, and is a moody, cinematic and thrilling piece of work. The band's performance in the same industrial location matches the riotous energy of the concept, and adds another textural layer to the visuals.
