VIDEO: Wave Machines – Ill Fit

• 16th Oct 2012

A tower block near Sefton Park, a Mersey tunnel ventilation shaft, The Shard and the Gerkin, all combine in an unlikely promenade for the Wave Machines new video for Ill Fit released on Monday 22nd October.

Directed by Scott Spencer and John Brown, the video draws heavily on the architecture of London and Liverpool, two cities that played a key role in the creation of the band’s new album. Entitled Pollen and released on 21st January 2013, the album was written and recorded at St Brides Church in Liverpool and in producer Lexxx’s studio in London.

With a focus on consistent sonic and musical themes, Pollen was conceived as a more cohesive whole than their debut. If Wave If You’re Really There revelled in their first experiements with pop and its protagonists’ misadventures in love and life, Pollen exists in the shadowy and contradictory emotions aroused by long-term friendship and unconditional love.
