Kings Of Leon 'Mustang' by Brook Linder

Rob Ulitski - 27th Feb 2024

Brook Linder explores the absurd mundanity of everyday life, in his riveting promo for the returning Kings Of Leon. 

The video for comeback single Mustang is made up of hundreds of high-angle zoom shots, capturing bland scenes from an exciting, chaotic vantage point. 

The zoom lens photography evokes 70s classics of New American Cinema like The Conversation and The Parallax View, but Linder throws the homage off-kilter with the ordinary-yet-weird stuff happening in front of the camera. 

From kids' birthday parties to priests smoking and LARP roleplay events, the video captures the true essence of humans in our everyday monotony, contrasting these shots with captivating performance portraits of the band.
