Digital Good Time: "Skeleton Boy"

(Digital Good Time is a series in which xoxobra focuses on the visual side of music)

2009's first installment of Digital Good Time features the first cool music video to be released in the year, for a song called "Skeleton Boy" by UK disco-pop band Friendly Fires. Directed by Clemens Habicht of Nexus Productions, the video takes more literal use of the song title and dressed the band in black tights decorated with double stick tape in a skeletal pattern, which only shows through once a set of powerful offstage fans start blasting and bean bag filling starts flying and sticking to the band. I am not much of a fan of the song, but visually it's a pretty cool concept.
