Hurts – Video Interview & Live Set

Submitted by / 14 years ago / Music Videos, New Album Releases, New Songs

Hurts just uploaded a new video onto their YouTube account, and it’s probably their most interesting video to date.

Although they start off talking bullshit about physical music sales, they go on to reveal more interesting details about the band, what they have been doing and what they plan to do in the future.

For those of you who are Hurts fans like myself, you will be interested to hear why we receive so little information from the band themselves.

“We set out with a plan, to not give away much, and not say anything, but do big, big things that were important and took the place of lots of little things. And when we took the decision not to give anything away, we thought this could go one of two ways.”

“People could just go I’m bored, or it could be hard to get which everyone falls for, so it’s good. They say, uh, get over yourselves, and then they go, but please show us more music – so it works.”

Unfortunately, I had the opportunity to see Hurts live earlier this week, but I didn’t have either the money or the time to do it. Luckily for me, there are three live snippets of their songs included in this 11 minute interview.

They include: Better Than Love, Stay, and Wonderful Life, and by god do they sound good! Enjoy!
