Head Like a Hole, “Fish Across Face”

Could this be 'the most' New Zealand video? It's full on and includes body paint, mud, tribal getups, crash zooms, chaotic camera work and distorted lenses. It's also filmed at the beach, a rubbish dump and on a bouncy castle. This was the first single from over-the-top Wellington rockers Head Like a Hole. It was both a finalist for Best Music Video of the Year and was banned by TVNZ.
