Last we heard from popular rock band back number, they announced that they would be releasing a new single titled “Mabataki” on December 20th.  Now, well in advance of this date, the group have published the short version of the lead track’s music video to their label’s Youtube channel.

The PV for this mid-tempo winter tune combines footage of the track’s performance inside a warehouse with a series of scenes which are meant to represent the worldview of the lyrics.  Of note, these shots were taken by four different photographers, each aiming to convey a range of different feelings.

You’ll find the rather emotional PV for “Mabataki” if you read on below.
