(pls) set me on fire is the first single from Enter Shikari’s forthcoming album A Kiss For The Whole World.
The accompanying music video was conceived and directed by frontman Rou Reynolds, alongside London-based producers / longtime friends/collaborators of the band, Kode Media.
Intended specifically as a more simple (yet extremely dynamic) video which twins with its single #2 successor, (pls) set me on fire was filmed in one complete shot on one locked-off camera in the docklands of East London, just hours into the beginning of 2023.
On the subject of the video, Rou Reynolds said : “I’ve not always been happy with our previous music videos, so figured I’d put my money where my mouth was and direct these ones myself. I wanted the (pls) set me on fire video to feel minimal and uncomplicated, which is actually the polar opposite of the next video. So, given that the main function of this video is really just to set up the next one, I think it came out fucking great.”
