Look, it’s not easy being a super villain. Sure, the job is exhilarating, but you can’t be on the clock all the time. You have to have a home life, and it’s not like the wife and kids are going to be able to understand the thrill of having your arch nemesis chained to a table awaiting certain annihilation.
At least, that’s the idea behind Miike Snow‘s “Genghis Khan” video, which the Swedish group just released. The track is the second single taken from iii, the followup to 2012’s Happy to You. You can watch the unnamed villain process his existential crisis through dance below, then catch the group on their first headlining tour in three years. Those dates follow.
