The familiar heavy bass of Kim Deal propels “Walk It Off”--one of the few highlights from the spotty Mountain Battles. The song's split-screen video follows a bike messenger as he struggles to deliver a package to a customer who is too afraid to accept it, and goes great lengths to avoid him. What that has to do with the song is anyone’s guess.
