The Drug

Röyksopp are another one of those bands who seem to hold the music video in high esteem and always put a lot of thought and effort into the visuals that accompany their music. From the endless image loops of Eple, the sad narrative of Poor Leno and the instruction manual stylings of Remind Me, I honestly can’t think of a bad Röyksopp video.

With their latest effort The Drug (directed by that go) they may have put out their best video yet. Set in what appears to be a post-apocalyptic world, 3 retro styled young girls explore the ravaged landscapes, encountering victims of the unknown disaster along the way.
