WATCH: Yves Tumor Releases Thought-Provoking Video for “Noid”

“Noid” was one of our favorite tracks of 2018, a soulful plea about anxiety over police surveillance and brutality and refusing to be part of a system that wants to pull you into its clutches. The video is a smart, menacing look at the same symptoms, with Tumor being watched by CCTV and tackled by cops who glower and gloat as they surveil and slam him. All this happens in the light of day, so that you’re pulled into the picture and experience, no matter your personal experience. See the Knoxville native at Big Ears 2019.
