YOU MIGHT REMEMBER OK Go as the band behind that deadly treadmill video from 2006. (Yes, that was ten years ago and, yes, we feel ancient.)

Since then the indie band has made dozens of eyecatching videos, but their latest might be their most impressive yet.

Yesterday the band debuted the video for the song The One Moment and it’s already melting people’s brains.

The video kicks off with this four-second assault on the senses:

That four seconds is then slowed down and turned into an epic four-minute video that’s both mesmerising and mind-boggling.

Best music video of 2016? Quite possibly. It’s certainly the talk of the internet anyway.

Whoops!

(Curious as to how they pulled it off? This behind-the-scenes video sheds some light on it.)
