Mission of Burma: “1, 2, 3, Partyy!” (Video)

8:35 a.m. · October 6, 2009 · by Nick Neyland

The opening track from Mission of Burma’s The Sound, The Speed, The Light gets a suitably colorful video on this clip. “1, 2, 3, Partyy!” is a typically piece of ebullient punk rock from the band, and is a decent attempt at capturing the frantic energy of their exceptional live shows.

This video is an odd mix of live footage of the band and a fast paced clip frenzy that occasionally looks like a Coke commercial with an unusual soundtrack. Mission of Burma may be advancing in years, but the footage of them in this video demonstrates how they can still show young punk whippersnappers a thing or two.
