Franz Ferdinand – “Love Illumination” (Official Video)

Shortly after announcing their impending new album Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action, Franz Ferdinand shared a pair of singles, the mercilessly catchy “Right Action” and the saxophone-spiked “Love Illumination.” For the “Right Action” video, the band dug into its past, recruiting “Take Me Out” video director Jonas Odell for some slick graphic-design action. But for “Love Illumination,” they’ve gone a different route. Timothy Saccenti directed this one, filming the band in a freaky fantasyland full of elaborately costumed dancers. A few shots of a lady in pasties nudge this one slightly into NSFW territory.
