5SOS's 'Wildflower' Video Is A Psychedelic Dream Co-Starring Luke's Dog

5 Seconds of Summer's "Wildflower" is a sunny slice of psychedelic pop that warrants a similarly eye catching video; ideally, one set outdoor in a field of blossoms. Obviously, that's not really a possibility amid the global coronavirus pandemic, so 5SOS did the next best thing: they brought their eye catching, kaleidoscopic vision to life from indoors their own homes.


For the "Wildflower" video, which arrived on Thursday (April 16), every one of the musical group members filmed themselves in front of a green screen that was passed from residence to residence (and which, they noted, was disinfected soon after each use). Then, director Andy DeLuca and assistant director Sarah Eiseman filled the footage with charming animations and lo-fi effects; we visualize little ferns sprout up from Calum Hood's bass along with a waterfall pouring out of Ashton Irwin's armpit. Luke Hemmings's dog Petunia makes a couple beautiful cameos, and Michael Clifford gives us a LOL-worthy moment once the green screen abruptly crashes in back of him. It's all tied with each other with a cool, vibrant aesthetic and scenes that depict the Aussie rockers' quirks and personalities.


It's a wildly creative video, and one that manages to conjure a remarkable feeling of togetherness, all things imagined. Check it out below.


"Wildflower," which features lead vocals from Hood, appears on the band's recently released fourth album, CALM. Their Youngblood follow-up also features the singles "Teeth," "Easier," "Old Me," and "No Shame."
