Real Estate: "Suburban Dogs" (Video)

8:30 a.m. · March 10, 2010 · by Nick Neyland

The inevitable has happened: Yes, someone really did take Real Estate to an actual Real Estate office to shoot a video for one of their songs. This clip was shot during a Christmas party, which must have been a total downer for the assembled office workers, assuming this actually was a real shindig and not something staged for the cameras.

Those shots are interspersed with clips of the band in more appropriate settings, but it’s amusing to watch the jarring juxtaposition of their brittle melancholia and the brightly lit colors and forced bonhomie of the office. They should have tried to get the boys from the band to close a few deals while they were in town.
