Obits: "Pine On" (Video)

The video for Obits' raucous "Pine On" reminds me of that old thumb-acted parody of Star Wars (It's called Thumb Wars) that the used DVD store in my neighborhood has about 1500 copies of. But instead of thumbs, the band is captured with paper versions of their eyes and nose taped to their chins, creating a bizarre effect as they sing the track. I bet that dude is so happy he has a goatee that looks like a guy with a chin strap beard.

Obits' I Blame You is out now via Sub Pop. [Pitchfork]
