"Kíla’s new single ‘Suas Síos’, taken from their tenth album ‘Kila’ which is set to be released on 1 December. Mattias Gordon, the video director was recruited through the Radar Music Videos website (http://www.radarmusicvideos.com) where directors from around the world had the opportunity to pitch their ideas to Kíla. Mattias was chosen over pitches from Australia, Spain, Mexico and England for his inventive animations and previous work with Lau and Kathryn Williams. Mattias explains his approach: “I tried to create something new. I always try to find a unique approach for every video. I work in different styles and techniques. I try to get the feeling of the song and to translate that into visuals. And it’s a balance how much story the video should have. And how much the story should speak to your right side of the brain or the left. Now when the video is finished and I look at it the story tells me something this: Don’t go blind on one thing. If you open your eyes new things will come to you.” According to Rónan Ó Snodaigh, Kíla’s lead singer, the song itself is about “Going to find courage, throwing a stone into a river and the thoughts that go with it to be cleansed.” "
