stick up for yourself
Has anyone seen the previews for Yeasayer's "Ambling Alp" video yet? Let me explain. First of all- everybody is naked. Yes you read right, they're all starkers. Not even a leaf. Okay so after the initial shock of the nudity we're greeted by some LSD driven illusions of these people running about on a desert. Absolutely no idea where but it looks like it's killing their feet. They're still naked at this point, so it's not pretty when they're busy power-walking through the dust. Hmm. But it ends with everybody sleeping on silver sheets. Are they all oiled up for a massive orgy? It looks quite likely. Although, aside from all this enigma, the song is actually pretty damn good. Perhaps not quite as thrilling as the blatant cult sexathon on show, but twinned with the Memory Tapes remix, I think the single has enough hoohaa to kick that eerie mojo of yours into action. Yikes.

DL:
Yeasayer - Ambling Alp (Memory Tapes Remix) [Z]
Yeasayer - Ambling Alp (Memory Tapes Remix) [Y]

Don't forget you can get a hold of their debut albums now. Both good listens, in particular Memory Tapes' which is nothing short of special.
