Doe Do Dating in the Video for Anti-Love Song "Monopoly"

Behold: a modern parable of lust in which a woman sacks off three of the most common types of crap men you'll find on Tinder and takes home a sweet axe instead.

Remember Blind Date? That was good wasn't it. Loads of desperate strangers appearing on telly looking for a reason to get up in the morning and/or a free holiday in the Canary Islands. They were simpler times, the Blind Date times. Now we have Take Me Out, which is sort of the same thing but with more women, less shoulder pads and Paddy McGuinness mincing about like a street magician, and that one on Channel 4 where you just observe people's genitals and decide where you'd like to go from there.

In a new video for "Monopoly" directed by Andrew Northrop, Doe – purveyors of heavy shredding and sonic eyerolls – spin the concept of the dating show into a modern parable of lust in which a woman sacks off three of the most common types of crap men you'll find on Tinder and takes home a sweet axe instead. As Nicola tells us: "'Monopoly' is an anti-love song. It's about that point in a relationship when it's all going to shit and you're trying to be diplomatic but just want to explode and tell the person that you hate everything about them."

Watch below and let the see 'you' see the 'suck'!
