What A Scream: Bioshock Infinite's Boys Of Silence

The Boys of Silence sound like an incredible New Romantic band so I was slightly disappointed to find that they're actually blind men with two gramophones soldered onto their heads. If ever a game needed less mechaniman monstrosities and more synth pop, Bioshock: Infinite is that game. With these cantankerous "walking cameras" that emit the shriek of a thousand sirens and Mr Tickle's dangerous yet sorrowful offspring it's a world full of ruined metal men. What do they do for fun? Brief footage of a Boy of Silence below, along with Mr Levine and others enthusing about the concept.

Least practical balaclava of the day so far.
