New video from the band's upcoming second album Lights

Bristol shoegazers The Fauns are set to release their second album Lights on December 2 via Invada Records. It's the follow-up to their self-titled 2009 debut and their second release on the label, following a Record Store Day 12" featuring remixes from Clint Mansell and Invada's Redg Weeks (have a watch of the video for the Mansell track here and read our interview with him about it here).

Ahead of the album, we've got the premiere of the video for LP cut 'Seven Hours'. It's been directed by John Minton, the man behind Portishead's live visuals and director of Savages' recent clip for 'Husbands', and sees the band shrouded in darkness for the most part, backlit by swathes of primary colours, before the track's seismic, wall of sound climax sets loose a blaze of flashing lights - have a watch above and head to the band's Facebook for updates, including details of their forthcoming tour with shoey French outfit Alcest.
