ItвЂ™s one thing to give press to a band that will thank you and move on, but itвЂ™s another to feel like you have a place in their journey, wherever it takes them. Even I can vouch for them as one of my favorite groups to work with.

If Tioga can continue on this creative trajectory and capitalize on their ability to write these catchy, dark hooks, theyвЂ™ll have no problem maintaining a following that demands more from them. I think with the success of this video, possibility of making more things really clicked and now weвЂ™re gonna run with it,вЂќ Brooks said. The experience just made me want to keep making videos! IвЂ™m sure I speak for all the guys when I say that. 'For me, the big takeaway was that this was our first successful venture into a narrative video.

Seeing the final product was definitely a feeling of excitement and pride and I would love to do something like this again.' Drummer Henri Tyler Brooks echoed this sentiment. Everything from getting styled as a snooty and entitled food judge to wearing jumpsuits was extremely fun and out of our normal realm of being. 'Overall the shoot was so fun! Bob Sweeney really pulled out all the stops to make planning and shooting this video so easy and take our vision to something far more entertaining than I myself was envisioning. Bassist Austin Paragas attests to how much of an asset videographer Bob Sweeney was to their project.

TiogaвЂ™s other music videos include a lyric video for вЂњImaginary Friend,вЂќ a staged play-through of вЂњSuffer,вЂќ and a basement shoot of вЂњBreak Me In.вЂќ вЂњBad ThingsвЂќ is, by far, the bandвЂ™s most thoughtful creation that successfully emphasizes their hope at fluidly transitioning their sound and brand, and I think thatвЂ™s partly thanks to having outside, professional help.

We all had such a kick getting into character and being silly for such a вЂdarkвЂќ song.вЂ™вЂќ We wanted costumes, the distraction-less white background, and a core idea that we could bring to life. 'The video really came from the results of us wanting to up the ante for what we could do with a music video. Guitarist Derrick Dieso feels that is the most successful part of bringing this track to life. Aside from the comedy, thereвЂ™s a level of serious production quality that has to be recognized, from hiring an outside actor, Hannah Parke, to the maturity of fully directing a video that includes aspects other than a live play-through. The plot is funny in an off-putting sense and seems to progress in such a way that its ending could have a dozen different resolutions.

ThereвЂ™s a definite eerieness to this video thanks to the staging of AdamsвЂ™ solo shots and the lighting that washes over the band while they play. I couldnвЂ™t describe it more spot-on if I tried, and thatвЂ™s my job. The concept in one sentence is: If David Lynch directed an episode of Food NetworkвЂ™s Chopped.вЂќ We literally recorded ourselves pitching the concept and then played it back so we didnвЂ™t forget any of the details because we were just brainstorming so rapidly. This video grips you immediately and with a sense of urgency in the same way that its conception gripped singer Greg Adams: 'The idea for the music video came together in a stream of consciousness around a table at a diner in Philadelphia last winter. Fully leaning into that directional shift I previously mentioned, Tioga enlisted the help of Philly creative Bob Sweeney to bring their vision of вЂњBad ThingsвЂќ - a dreamy dark pop exploration of the fear of isolation - to life.
