Oz band Psychedelic Porn Crumpets unveil a colour palette in video for 'Cornflake'





Words: Sam Geary

Australia's Psychedelic Porn Crumpets bring out a suitably colourful palette in their video for the trippy, riff-driven single 'Cornflake'.

The clip, produced by Mike Wyatt of Attack Animation, takes a cosmic narrative, questioning the meaning of life amidst a riot of colour.

"Existence is a strange concept so we wanted to create an animation that explores the idea of how weird life is," reveal the Crumpets. "Even after all the soul-searching, religious preaching and spiritual journeys there is not one answer to anything.

"The video salutes to the song perfectly, venting more energy, colour and strangeness that leaves most people perplexed. It’s sometimes hard to grasp we’re one of a billion grains of rice in a huge sushi roll; the video reinstates that awareness, so stop worrying and do something you care about before the aliens invade."

The Perth psych rockers head to the UK this autumn for the first time. See dates below. This will coincide with the re-release on September 10 of their first two albums, 'High Visceral Pt 1' and 'Pt 2' on a limited edition gatefold double vinyl.
