Video

Although similar to the promotional release of "Chi-Town" in February, instead of a physical issue, "Anna" received a visual interpretation through a collaboration with artist and friend of the band Martin Creed, entitled Work #1431. Creed supported the band on their May tour, and also hails from Wakefield, sharing a mutual point of reference. The video features "personal photographs in a fast paced and jolting yet minimalist sequence to the soundtrack of the song." [2]
