[WATCH] The Eiffels – “Spin Around”

We can always count on LA pop/rock band, The Eiffels, for something danceworthy and fresh, and their new video for “Spin Around” is just that!

Soaked in eighties-inspired neon vibes for days, the visual for “Spin Around” is a short but sweet representation of everything the band has encompassed for listeners over the years. Directed by Matt Robertson, the video was shot in the same room used as Bruce Wayne’s “Batcave” in 2008’s The Dark Knight.

“’Spin Around’ was written spontaneously after feeling unsatisfied with how our last single was developing in the studio,” shared frontman Sean Ulbs to Forbes. “We worked on the previous single for days, but the further we got, the more we realized it wasn’t what we had envisioned. Instead of reworking it, we scrapped it entirely, and I went home to write a new song. A couple days later we had ‘Spin Around.’ It was a valuable reminder that having a clear idea of what you don’t want can be very helpful in the writing process. We wanted a synth-driven dance song. We wanted fun vocals that didn’t take themselves too seriously. And we wanted to tell a story. ‘Spin Around’ is about that quintessential night out, and being fixated on a hypnotic muse. In our search for a crazy visual space for the music video, we fell in love with this particular set. We didn’t find out until later that it was The Dark Knight’s ‘Batcave.’”
