Kansas City kids Vedera throw together a couple of different tropes for their "Satisfy" video. I will now enumerate them for you thusly:
1. The bros-hanging-out-at-the-clubhouse vibe of Paramore's awesome "That's What You Get" video.
2. The playing-twice-as-fast/filmed-at-a-slower-speed effect popularized by Spike Jonze and Weezer in the video for "Undone (The Sweater Song)."
3. The appearance of completely inappropriate footwear given the action taking place. Check singer Kristin May rocking the ankle wrap heels while on what can only be described as a hike (one is reminded of Gaga wearing stilettos while using crutches in her "Paparazzi" video).
4. The near-skinny dipping at the end, artfully rendered in R.E.M.'s "Nightswimming" video and playfully played in Jimmy Eat World's "The Middle."
5. Not so much a music video trope as just silliness: May straight chucks her cell phone while hiking. At least take the SIM card, Sis!
