A few weeks back the band headed out to Fes, Morocco, to make a video for the new single, Magnificent . Here's our exclusive behind-the-scenes doco on the shoot.

'The world of music is rapidly changing, and new business models are developing fast, but all of this progress is threatened in a world where 95% of music downloads see no reward going to the creator. '
For No Line On The Horizon the band asked longtime photographic collaborator Anton Corbijn not just to take the pictures but also to make a film.
