I always thought it was just a straightforward video, rather than parodying that lifestyle. In the past they'd always sort of poked fun of that lifestyle rather than joined in, so that's why I was so taken aback by Oh Love. I'd be very pleased if the intention actually was mocking. So pleased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post solongfromthestars Posted November 3, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 3, 2016 The Oh Love video was awful. But I don't blame the band for it when Sam Bayer supposedly came out of retirement to direct it Not saying they had no say in it, but I doubt it was all them with a director like that (yes, I know how it works, my fiance is a musician) and Billie not being in a great state of mind. It's a shame because I actually like the way it's shot and the location, and the models thing could have been done well but it wasn't. Kill the DJ was pretty bad too, the bike part has no relevance to the rest at all 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stories and songs Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 The Kill the DJ video was so STUPID, sweet lord. It could've had a cooler concept, too. Damn it, Trilogy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they had to approve it but I blame Sam Bayer for how poorly executed his videos for the trilogy were. One thing is that I don't find the Oh Love video hot. Another thing is that it lacks any idea aside from let's shoot the guys drinking beer and the gals...well, just being there. It's bland and boring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nightmare remake just horrible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn it, Trilogy. Can I be 1000% honest right now on this board? Ok, here is goes: I've never watched that video in full (only seen stills and small snipets) and have never seen a single ounce of any other Trilogy music video. In fact, I don't even know what other songs have videos. I saw one piece of the KTD music vid and I was like "lol nope, no time for that bye" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted November 4, 2016 Author Share Posted November 4, 2016 As simple as it is, I love the Nuclear Family video. It got me really excited for the Trilogy, and the song itself is still up there with some of their best stuff. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shtrudel Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 You all talk about how bad Oh Love's video, but you forget that Welcome To Paradise is basically an overdub of a live performance with this random shot of Billie burning a paper or something.

St. Jonny Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Only videos I can't really watch are JOS and Wake Me Up When September Ends. They are fine until the music breaks and all that bullshit goes on, really turns me off the video, would rather just see the parts with the band playing, through and through. Seems any video with them and their music entertains me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
