Some young hoodlums get more than they bargained for after breaking into a car in this striking new video for Son of Kick track Playing The Villain, directed by Matt Devine of the Glue Society. Warning: it gets a bit gross later on.

I've heard of giving someone an ear bashing but this takes it to the next level

This is like a crap campaign to justify the return of corporeal punishment. More Harry Brown than Chris Cunningham. The way education systems are being attacked, I suspect we will see a lot more work of this kind -- highly stylised presentations of Daily Mail opinion.

Representational ideologies are put into reverse. Aristocracy/Royalty are now human, warm, fun (see CR coverage of awful t-mobile ad) http://bit.ly/hsSpSu ...while working class are aimless, aggressive, anti-social etc. and need to be violently reprimanded.

I wondered why I have so many nose bleeds. Must remember to tell son to turn bass down.

I liked it, and think it was done really well.
dose make you wonder when you go to gigs ect of the limitations.

Nice?! Just the thing to watch after breafast

this is a bad video in so many ways.

hmm... striking yes, not much else to it, just a bit crude for no apparent reason really.
Doesn't do the track any favours, and seriously doesn't entice me to buy (or listen to) their music.
All in all, bit of a failure in my opinion.

Honestly , striking !!
Traumatized me on my own level of sensitiveness , as much as I got to lay down on a couch for a few minutes after viewing it !
Never felt even a bit like this by watching a video before... as crude as it even could have been , but this one does it's job !!
But I respect it cuz it has it's power even if it affected me negatively .
Seeing them bleed pushes it far , you imagine what happens inside their bodies to cause what you see on the outside which makes you feel it even more and provoque a deep feeling of disgust and a bit of mind pain ....feeling like someone hearing the scraping on a blackboard by fingernails and who can't stand it at all and just has to run run away from it ....
this was a long one :)
Succes for this video although

Terrible. Why is this supposed to be a good video? You can't even properly listen to the track. Pointless and crude.
2011-04-22 15:06:41
This is much better...

I thought it was disturbingly brilliant, and the actors were awesome

the justice video is exploitative, shameless, and dishonest; the glue society one is good fun, nothing serious, sheer entertainment
