Other than perhaps trying to bring the destruction of the world, what are Trump, Putin, and Kim Jong doing in the video for Beldon Haigh’s “Anyway You Want It”?
From the looks of it, having a hell of time not destroying the world.
There is a method to Beldon Haigh’s madness. “Anyway You Want It” dives into the intricacies of a tumultuous relationship, exploring themes of narcissistic entanglements, deliberate obliviousness, and the gradual process of self-realisation. It presents a poignant reflection on the challenges posed by individualism and consumerism, acting as a metaphorical antidote to numbness in the face of these societal trends.
Open for interpretation, the “it” is left to the discretion, but no matter what one may decide “it” is, “Anyway You Want It” is filled with driving bass and drums and uptempo guitars that wail and soar. The song is upbeat, fun, and a rocker.
And the video for “Anyway You Want It” matches the spirit of the song. Awild spectacle, featuring abundant smoke, fire, and special effects. Employing the band’s iconic masks, it cleverly depicts Trump, Putin, and Kim Jong as animated zombies, offering a unique lens through their entertaining zombie dances and amusing antics.
