The forests of Madrid seems to be the perfect setting in So Many Wizards‘ new Esther Morán Fraile-directed clip for “Lose Your Mind.” Illustrating the track off of the quartet’s debut “Warm Nothing,” the wide-open spaces seem appropriate for a group of young Spaniards to play. However, the editing by María Antepazo does include some random animal-human hybrids, smoke and lastly, a pretend-gun that yields real blood. It’s a little intense, it’s a little complicated, but it’s all very intriguing, much like the music frontman Nima Kazerouni writes.
