Dear any bands I have declared my love for over the years, you are seriously going to have to compete for my affections starting….NOW! 2:54 are a band I’ve had a LOT of love and admiration for over the past year and a bit. Creeping blew my mind last, and they’ve gone and done it again with their new one Scarlet.

If you love The Cure (I want to be your friend), Beach House, Warpaint- then you SHOULD fall in love with 2:54. If you don’t, then hey- can’t like everything can we.

The video to Scarlet fits the song perfectly. It is dark, intense and creepy. I love anything that is dark, intense and creepy. I’ve never claimed to be normal, mainly because normal does not exist. If it seems a bit odd, I’ll probably enjoy it. 2:54 are EASILY the UK’s best band right now (along with some others. I know, I know.)

I can safely say that this is my favourite video of the year. It’s just brilliant. I love how it is shot, it’s just perfect.

Beautiful isn’t it? A hint of strange with a touch of sheer beauty.
