Bruising Become Vloggers in "I Don't Mind"

YouTube is a weird and wonderful place. One where you can watch reviews of seven different kinds of Oreos followed by 45 minutes of ASMR chiropractic adjustment followed by something else until suddenly it's 3am, your mouth is bone dry, and your recommended videos are a series of Kafkaesque nightmares. Leeds-based purveyors of melancholic pop, Bruising, have captured this in their new video for "I Don't Mind" but in a much more pleasant way.

Bruising, as you may recall, are excellent at writing brooding pop songs with chunky guitars, sick riffs and vocal melodies that are the sonic equivalent to drizzling honey onto yoghurt. Featuring each member doing things like giving extremely professional make-up tutorials and vlogging inside a shopping centre, the video was self directed by the band, with everyone filming and editing their own bits individually. "We felt it important to make a video that showcased our unique talents for storytelling and personal brands," they say.
