"Signal 30" is an actual, and notoriously grisly, U.S. road safety film from 1959, which will be familiar if you're either a) old, or b) a Mad Men fan. In keeping with the old school vibe and destructive content of the song's roots, the video mixes archival accident footage with band performance on some antique TV sets, plus some practical on-set collisions to really make an impact.
The first few beats and images might have you thinking this is just a high concept "Harlem Shake," but then we reach levels of inspired insanity with mouths within mouths, an endless booty train and a sea of undulating limbs. It's kind of like "Seven Nation Army" but for people for Balaclava and ass fetishists. And it is awesome. Or ridiculous.
PSY has announced his follow-up single to "Gangnam Style," which is the biggest YouTube hit ever (sorry, Harlem Shake). And it's a big rollout, schedule for April 13 in conjunction with a live YouTube concert stream from the Seoul World Cup Stadium.
