Frontman Chino Moreno said the band reached out to Whannell after hearing he was a fan of their most recent album, Ohms.

What other directors would you like to see make a music video, and for which band?

X96

X96 is Utah's Original Alternative. It is self-aware. It is ingrained. It plays bands like Panic! at the Disco, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Cure, and Muse. It's part of a healthy diet and it's why native Utahns are so stout and stalwart. Listen and become part of it and it will become part of you.
