What a silly "notion"

So, Kings of Leon released a video for their new single, "Notion". I'd love to pretend that I'm about to rip it apart just to piss off Pat, but that's true --it's really that bad.

First of all, the song is pretty weak, but the vid features three pretty random dude-bro music video tropes, all of which make me think it was actually created 10-15 years ago:
  1. emoting against a wall (bonus points for brick, as well as facing the wall for absolutely no reason)
  2. walking against a crowd (so deep!)
  3. fire! explosions! debris! (seals the deal for dude-bro hall of fame)

Hellllloooo. That song is awesome. I can't see the video, but I believe it is crappy. Their 'On Call' video was one of the worst videos for a good song I've ever seen. But the song is indeed very good.
