It's possible you've seen trippier videos than the clip for Grizzly Bear's excellent "Two Weeks," but none this week, that's for sure. In the clip, the band goes to church, but it turns out it's not them at all, but some firework-brained version of the band. The way their faces are morphed reminds me of those real person-renderings of Homer Simpson and Mario that made the rounds last year. Directed by Patrick Daughters.
Grizzly Bear's excellent Veckatimest is out on Tuesday via Warp. [Stereogum]
was I the only one thoroughly creeped out?
freaky video but utterly excellent track
the adorned simplicity of the video fits really well with the track, which is definitely my most played off Veckastimest thus far...
"was I the only one thoroughly creeped out?"
Oh no. That was my first reaction to this video.
Love the song and I consider it to be the top single of the year next to Phoenix's '1901', but I hate this video. Really creeps me out.
extremely weird video, but song was really dope
your boy
