We saw the final cut of our brand new video for "Walk on Thin Air" for the first time today. It was conceived and directed by Brett Ingram, who also did a great documentary called "Monster Road," of which we were all fans. My first reaction on seeing it was "shock and awe" in the greatest possible sense. It's like Brett found a way to express the emotions of the song without treating any of the lyrics literally, and he did so in the form of a dream. It's like David Lynch and Buster Keaton made a short film together. Hope you enjoy it too!

Love these pro-production vids! Of course, crappy, handheld, low-light, wandering-frame, amateur show-vids still rule.

I loved the video. I think it has the uniqueness of David Lynch's "Eraserhead" combined with the symbolic cinematography of F.W. Murnau's "Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans" (which is a must see).


Props to Brett Ingram!
