Lullabye Arkestra ‘We F— the Night’

With a title like 'We F--- the Night,' there can be no big budget. It just wouldn't make any sense, especially considering the drum/bass/loud formula of married duo Lullabye Arkestra. What does make sense though is some good old-fashioned flesh-eating zombies. "I have a love for the cheap horror B-movie thing," drummer/vocalist Justin Small told Noisecreep.

Considering the theme of this distorted sludge track from Lullabye Arkestra's forthcoming album 'Threat/Worship,' it could have only been zombies for the video. "It's basically a song about getting out there at night time, and taking over and ruling it," Bassist/vocalsit Kat Taylor-Small explained -- until Justin laughingly interjected, "Until you become a zombie. "It's a funny symbolic statement that's not meant to be taken very seriously," Kat added.

"I thought it would be awesome to have zombies take over. But because of the mosh pit, no one actually notices that everyone else is turning into a zombie. The whole audience is completely clueless until they're all dead," Justin commented. The zombies needed to swarm and overtake this crowd had to be your father's kind of zombies, not your little cousins athletic kind. "We needed the slow-moving zombies. No fast zombies," Justin said. "How the zombie are now ... nah, nah. It had to be the old-school, slow-moving zombies."

The video was a full eight-hour day affair that involved all volunteers. "It was actually my brother Nick Taylor who directed, shot and edited the whole thing. So we pulled a lot of favors from family members and friends to help us do it, because we basically funded the whole thing ourselves," Kat reveals. "Everyone who was there agreed to get completely caked in corn syrup and food coloring -- and stuck it out all day long. We shot in the middle of February, not exactly very warm. We're very thankful for all the people that came together to help us with the video."

Now a glaring question remains, one of utter importance. What if this scenario really happens and, while Lullabye Arkestra are playing, a zombie apocalypse truly happens-one of biblical and movie proportions? What do Kat and Justin do to survive? "Maybe we could fire off our fog machine, confusing them and blinding them and then run away," Justin delighted. Kat adds, "We could pummel them with loud rock 'n' roll and see what they do. Maybe they'll enjoy it and chill out for a bit."

'Threats/Worship' will be hitting the streets and digital stores from Vice Records on Sept. 1.
