'68's Music Video For "Bad Bite" is All Hand Drawn

Drawn by vocalist and guitarist Josh Scogin.

'68 is now streaming their new single "Bad Bite", which as a song commands attention just fine. Though the entirely-hand drawn music video by vocalist and guitarist Josh Scogin certainly helps as well. Seriously, this music video is insanely impressive!

Here's what Scogin had to say about the song and video.

"The 'subliminal' messages are actually what became kind of like a journal for me. A bit of a 'dear diary' during the 2020 year of lemons. My computer is old and slow so I had to work on this video in small little, 3 second chunks each so, there was one moment that I assumed it would never actually be released to the public, but I had to finish it because I made a promise to myself a few years back that if I start something, I have to finish it.

"So anyway, I just started writing whatever I felt at the time (I think at one point I have some Star Wars references because I was making my way through each of those movies), and I also started writing the date on it somewhere each time I worked on it. Once I was basically done with the animation, I put it all together for the first time and bounced it down (it took an entire 24 hours to render it down) and I was so stoked.

"I knew I wanted it raw, and I wanted my 'mistakes' to shine through (to rebuttal how perfect, pristine, and fake everything seems to be these days.). I wanted it to be HUMAN but before I actually placed it all together, I just thought it wasn’t going to actually work. Once I was able to see it all it blew me away. I love it."

'68 will release their new album Give One Take One on March 26. Give One Take One was produced by Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Rush, Alice In Chains), and is available for pre-order here.
