Tame Impala’s Currents is one of the year’s best and now they have a video for ‘The Less I Know The Better’ that is one of the year’s best. Directed by Canada, who have been responsible for some superb videos over the years – Oh Land, El Guincho, Battles, Phoenix, She & Him and Scissor Sisters, have created a sumptuous visual feast to tie in with the song’s subject matter – being rejected by one you love before seeing them with someone else – in this case – the manifestation is a gorilla called Trevor. One too many gratuitous butt shots but stellar work all-round otherwise.
