Video: Hobart W Fink, ‘Final Fantasy 7’

5

Hobart W Fink – the quartet of singer-guitarist Jayk Gallagher, singer Lauren Lakis, bassist Noe Santiago and AJ Brown – had a robust 2013. Their hard-driving indie-rock, spiked with ’90s-style riffage, tempo changes and twining boy/girl vocals, was on full display on their “Four Eyes, Five Tails” EP, and they followed it up in November with the single “Final Fantasy 7” as they continued work on a full-length. The video for song makes for one heck of a travelogue; it was filmed at various locations in Peru and in New Orleans, as if the song isn’t escapist enough. Our favorite snippet: The graffiti that reads “Heartbreak makes me horny.”
