Earlier this week, we gave you an exclusive first look at OK Go’s new video for “Needing/Getting”. When a music video’s that complex, you can bet a behind-the-scenes glimpse is going to be interesting — so here’s one to get you started.
This video should go some way to giving you a flavour of how the band went about their musical drive-by, which involved 1157 home-made instruments. Enjoy. [YouTube]

I still stand by my statement that this is a band of great artists who make great video clips but aren’t really all that good a writing music.
PS. is anyone else reminded of Shitscared when you see the Yellow guy hitting himself on the helmet?
