Looking for a music video featuring drums and... tubes?

Once, a year or two ago- upon these very forums, I think- somebody linked a mostly black and white music video featuring some (4?) young men angrily hitting drums. One of the drums was very large, and vertical, and some of the drums splashed red and yellow colors out. I think there were some instruments besides drums in the song, but they were not very noticeable.

I can't recall any lyrics, if there even were any besides angry noises.

Occasionally there would be clips of some sort of oily fluid flowing through clear tubes (which looked kind of like this), and sometimes there would be a guy standing, completely still and facing the camera, with a tube running into his mouth.

It was kind of like a cross between Percussion Gun and O-Daiko and I have utterly despaired of ever seeing it again.

Would anyone happen to know what the heck I'm talking about?

    Sounds like a combination of Blue Man Group bits.

    Yeah, the Blue Man Group has definitely been a confounding factor in my googling. But it definitely wasn't them, these guys had hair and white skin (probably) and a totally different style. Thanks for the input, though!

    It had kind of an... experimental, indie sound, I think, and the tubing imagery was slightly off-putting in a surgical sort of way (the tubes looked like this). It made me think of some kind of message about oil being used as life-support or something.

    I also think (but am not sure) that most of the video took place in a large, dark-ish warehouse type place, and all the shots featuring the tubes were against a white background.
