It looks like all the teenage adolation and big budget video shoot have gone to the head of young Zach Condon. In this surprisingly sexed up clip for the Lon Gisland EP's lovely waltz, "Elephant Gun", he sports a ridiculous mustache, swigs wine from the bottle, plays his French horn, and hosts a generally bacchanalian get together while ladies writhe on the ground and ride men on leashes.
Seems like a good time, although, and this could just be me, but those elephant noses are kind of disturbing.

I like it. Appropriately artsy for the song. I'm also going to go on record as believing that's a flugelhorn, not a French horn. It's like a bigger, lower-pitched trumpet. |
Part of me wants to hate on this and part of me wants to like it. It's interesting, but these types of artistic visions get lost in their randomness. I saw so much of this shit when attending art school, it started to become redundant. I say, bring back 'The Plot" to music videos and less non-sensical interpretive arrangements.
