Paramore step into a fairytale world in the video for “Brick By Boring Brick,” the second single from their phenomenal new album Brand New Eyes.

In photos from the set sent to MTV.com, it’s clear the video is a new direction for the band who normally go for performance-heavy videos. They say the clip, which they came up with the treatment for, is all about bringing to life a “dark fantasy world” and pull images straight from the song’s lyrics.

“Some of the elements in the video are pretty obvious and more literally pulling from the lyrics,” frontwoman Hayley Williams told MTV. “Then some of them are not. And I think it’s cool because there is a very playful and sort of whimsical vibe to it, but it’s also dark, and there are parts to it that are a bit twisted.”

The video will premiere next week on MTV.com. Can’t wait? Check out pics from the set below.
