Here is the newest video from the Black Lips off their album 200 Million Thousand. I love the brief second at about :14 where the band is dancing in front of the Christmas tree:
The director has this to say about the retro feel and look of the video:
I’ll be with you is a pretty sappy, but heartfelt song about a dear friend. I wanted the video to reflect the feeling and mood of the song as I feel it. I wanted to kind of recreate old home movies I’ve seen of my family in the 60’s, but make it a little more subversive and somewhat sinister. We playboy’s laying around, and some satanic elements, and charlie manson. But still semi-innocent and silly and happy. It was alot of fun to make it. I got my roommate to dress as a clown, and we got to throw cake all over my friends kitchen, making her scream like a maniac, while we laughed like maniacs.
They are on tour here in the states until the beginning of May, so catch them if you can:
this has a very VU feel to it. sort of sounds like “I’ll Be Your Mirror”
