Rhythm will bring about peace. It will give birth to beauty. It will move even the most primitive people, such as the post-apocalyptic troglodytes who populate this typically odd video from directors Andreas and Filip Nilsson for electronic act Royksopp featuring Karin of Fever Ray/The Knife. The hero here is Runar, a self-described "humble thinker and gambler" with the chops of a jazz drummer and enough chutzpah to don a loincloth and ride a drum-quad through the Scandinavian hinterlands, spreading a beatific message of peace and love. Recommended for fans of Clan Of The Cave Bear, The Road Warrior, Quest For Fire, and especially the Ringo Starr classic Caveman. PS: Make sure you turn it up, so you catch all the grunting/shrieking sound effects. --> watch "This Must Be It"
