While the rest of us were out enjoying our sausage sizzles and deciding the fate of the nation (boy, did an unfortunate majority of us drop the ball on that one), Violent Soho were busy rocking out with their fans.

In retrospect, the Mansfield boys got it right. This is what we all should’ve been doing on election day. Granted, spots for extras in Soho’s latest music video for raucous WACO single ‘Blanket’ were very limited.

But surveying the current Australian political landscape, it feels like we all would’ve been better off staying home and rocking out. As for Soho’s latest music video, you can now view it in all its 4K glory.

The clip was the brainchild of filmmaker Matt Weston, best known for his work with High Tension (in which he plays bass) and Cosmic Psychos, including directing the spectacular 2013 Cosmic Psychos documentary Blokes You Can Trust.

The band only recently unveiled their previous music video, immortalising WACO‘s ‘So Sentimental’ with 8mm-style footage of the band cruising through the country on a road trip, enjoying some brews, and hanging out on some train tracks.
