At times, the footage slows to a crawl while \u201cBlind Leading the Blind\u201d surges ahead, while at other moments Mumford is drumming at full speed as lights flash around him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cWorking with Nick Davies made the process of making this video an absolute privilege,\u201d Mumford said in a statement. \u201cGiven our long history of work together, it was a complete joy to be under his direction again. We wanted to access the nature of the song, including some of its anger, introspection and even self-flagellation. A drum kit and an old sweaty laundry in Bangkok while on tour provided all we needed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Though Mumford &amp; Sons had been working on \u201cBlind Leading the Blind\u201d for several years, the band finally completed and released the song in October.
