New Depeche Mode video — bound and gagged

Dave Gahan and the boys are back with a truly chilling video directed by Patrick Daughters. The clip’s a bit of a slow burn, but you’ll stick with it once the journey’s begun, trust me. It’s a car commercial gone horribly wrong…

Seems like Daughters is painting with a very dark brush for a director who may be best known for doing the charming, colorful and choreographed video for that catchy little Macbook Air song.
