Cults “official” music video for their debut album standout “Go Outside” was directed by Isaiah Seret. It features footage of the Jim Jones Jonestown cult massacre with the band edited into the footage. It’s bizzare but it actually kind of works.
Watch it below via Boing Boing:

their video that just came out is phenomenal. I didn’t expect what I was seeing at all…. the song beautifully accompanies the shots from the jonestown massacre. It’s ominous…. yet gorgeous. It’s haunting… yet engaging. Eerie… yet elegant. It’s got the perfect amount of contrast to make it a work of art.

Love Cults. Love their brand of indie-pop. Super catchy and perfect for the summer. They deserve all the recent hype they’ve been getting. Can’t wait to catch them on their tour with Foster the People
