The video tells the oldest story in the world: after an endless week, the protagonist of the video arrives at the long-awaited weekend loaded and confident waiting to see the girl he met the Saturday before and who has never succeeded to get out of your head.
Love, insecurity, fun and excess, all condensed in a feeling that leads to charge sparks but also to moments of deep insecurity.
Often just the moment we become more courageous and ready to play our move, time becomes cruel and our expectations fall in an instant.
This is the story of our Mystery Boy, disappointed and broken by a sentimental failure that makes our song the soundtrack of his existence.

The song was recorded and mixed with up-and-coming producer Ben Harper and mastered by engineer Loic Gillard of Motor Museum. The accompanying video was directed by Matt Snow at Snow Motion.
'Lazy Lethargic' showcases high octane verses and a soaring chorus that just will not escape you. The track wears all their influences on its sleeve, from the Arctic Monkeys to Fontaines D.C, while remaining innovative and unique.
