The track makes a splash as the latest Foo Fighters’ video one that definitely takes writer/director Dave Grohl and the FF team into uncharted waters. The video also includes  America’s favourite coach Jason Sudeikis on hand to make sure things go swimmingly. Sudekis stars in the hit Netflix series Ted Lasso a show about an English football team with an American Football Coach.

The video was premiered live on  MTVU and across MTV’s global network of channels. You can view the full music video below.

In the video you can hear Sudeikis shouting “Your toe points suck… stink… doodoo, I have seen diarrhoea with more consistency.” He then adds “Today is the most important competition of your lives. Prove me right!”

As the team makes their way to the pool, Foos’ “Love Dies Young” begins to play before the band’s faces are superimposed onto the synchronised swimmers’ heads. Elsewhere, Sudeikis’ character watches on from the side while a panel of judges take notes.

Grohl and his other band members then go underwater, with the group’s routine becoming more complex as it goes on. Sudeikis can be seen wearing a US flag jacket whilst urging encouragement. The swimming Foos are awarded 10s all round from the panel, but soon spot something nasty floating in the water.

In addition to the new music video Foo Fighters are also set to return to the UK next June for a run of stadium shows in Manchester, Birmingham and London. They will be supported by St. Vincent, Courtney Barnett and Shame with more set to appear as support acts throughout the tour.

The video has Arrested Development star Jason Bateman playing Winston Marshall (vocals, banjo, guitar), Ed Helms of The Office/The Hangover playing Ben Lovett (vocals, keyboard, accordion, drums), and Saturday Night Live actors Jason Sudeikis and Will Forte playing Marcus Mumford (lead vocals, guitar) and Ted Dwane (vocals, string bass, guitar) respectively.

The band joked “We are delighted to present to you our new video for the song Hopeless Wanderer. A massive pair of thumbs-up to Sam Jones for directing and his cast of young budding actors. We’re sure they all have bright futures ahead of them”

Ed Helms said “We had an absolute blast shooting this video and the final product only confirms what I felt going in – thank god we’re a fake band. We’re so grateful to be a successful fake band. It’s been years of fake dedication and fake hard work to get here, and I really believe we are at the forefront of abject fraudulence,” while Jason Bateman commented “Getting a chance to pretend I’m a rock star was the proudest I’ve been of myself while awake.”

Hopeless Wanderer is from the band’s 2012 release, Babel.
