Modest Mouse have come up with some great ways to promote their No One’s First and You’re Next EP. Initially, the tracks were released as a series of 7-inch singles, including one (“Satellite Skin”/”Guilty Cocker Spaniels”) for Record Store Day. Heath Ledger worked on the video for “King Rat,” and now comes this clip for “The Whale Song.”
The video was directed by Nando Costa, and features some scratchy stop-motion animation that is reminiscent of the earliest Tool clips. Costa is very comfortable using animation, and shot this inventive clip for Squarepusher’s “My Red Hot Car.” Modest Mouse’s No One’s First and You’re Next is available now.
