Sheffield, UK indie-emo duo Nai Harvest released their sophomore record, Hairball, this past April. Today, with the help of director Eric Crisp, they released a brand new music video for their song “Ocean Of Madness.”

The dreamy ballad is brought to life with lead singer Ben Thompson and drummer Lew Currie having a lot of fun in what appears to be a room full of a number of their friends dressed up in very odd costumes. Bunnies in gas masks, “happy birthday” signs, and neon wigs, among others? Must have been a great party.

“I had the idea a while ago for a video that was based on a band playing in the middle of a circular dolly track, so that was the sort of starting point for the video,” Ed Crisp, the music video’s director shares with Stereogum. “Calum and I got some ideas from the internet and set about building a dolly that can move on a track made of PVC pipe, pure DIY all the way. The concept was built around that, we wanted it to be kinda weird, with loads to look at and loads going on, I think it turned out pretty well considering we only had a day of filming including setting up and testing the dolly.”

The band is set to play two UK dates this month. More info can be found here. You can grab yourself a copy of Hairball here. Check out the new music video for “Ocean Of Madness” below.
