"Musically, 'Other Bad' is a string of disjointed conversations with multiple instruments, all talking at once, silencing one another, then rushing back in to blurt out what they're trying to say," the band's Eliza Niemi tells Vivid Radio "None of these conversations go anywhere — 'Other Bad' never gives you what you want. It builds and hints and foreshadows — instruments emulate ticking clocks — yet the satisfying, fully resolved climax is never realized. The clocks tick down to a person falling, out of control, back where they started."
The video itself starts out as a one-sided conversation between Niemi and the camera, as she cruises down the street on her bike. Before long, she encounters a trio of choreographed dancers and ribbon twirlers. Eventually, though, her bike ride mimics the meaning of the song — leaving the protagonist "falling, out of control, back where they started."
