Game of Thrones' Sophie Turner Stars In Bastille Video
. With "Oblivion," the members of Bastille have done the smartest thing they could possible to do rouse up press: they cast a television star as the stand-in for the band. And not just any television star: they've cast Sophie Turner, who plays Sansa Stark on Game of Thrones. Turner takes center stage at a demolition derby and where one would expect to hear the national anthem, she begins lip synching the song to Bastille singer Dan Smith's voice. It's an interesting change of pace in the very cinematic video career, thus far, of Bastille. Generally the band seems to prefer their music videos with more of a narrative, set up as mini-features but this one is a very different kind of filmmaking. It's a series of images and ideas, in the theoretical style of Terrence Malick, but with a lot more edits. It uses the atmosphere of a place to capture some idea, with the idea itself remaining unspoken. There is no denouement. The viewer is left to assume that this vignette continues to play, even after the cameras have left. Watch the video here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
