Video: Phoenix - "Trying to Be Cool"

Phoenix‘s sophomore album Bankrupt! has flown under the radar so far this year, and by no means would a cheap joke on the record’s title be appropriate to describe its reception. In that vein, here is the music video the band released for a song called “Trying to Be Cool,” their second single off the release. Directed by the Creators Project and a team called CANADA, the visuals are a mash-up of in-studio antics and unrelated scenes. Watch the video above and check out their debut performance of the track on “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.
