Watch Chvrches and Hayley Williams’ New Animated Video for “Bury It”

Last month, Chvrches shared their collaboration with Paramore’s Haley Williams, a remix of “Bury It” from Every Open Eye. Today, the band has shared an animated music video for the track. Created by ongoing collaborator Jamie McKelvie and animated by Mighty Nice, it sees the band and Williams use telekinesis to send a swarm of household objects flying around an island city. Watch the video below. 

Chvrches’ Iain Cook says in a press release:

Ever since Jamie McKelvie began working with us on CHVRCHES poster designs, we have been discussing ways in which we could further our creative relationship. His work on comics such as Phonogram, Young Avengers and most recently The Wicked + The Divine have cemented his reputation as one of the most unique and exciting artists.

McKelvie says:

Music has always had a big influence on my work, and making a music video seemed like a natural progression of that. Getting the opportunity to work on this video with such great collaborators – CHVRCHES, Hayley Williams, and Mighty Nice – meant the reality turned out even better than I’d imagined.
