Shit's weird.

This came out a few weeks ago but the board I saw it on kept talking about how it wasn't comfirmed to be the official video. Which seems dumb 'cause who would just make a fan video like this before the album came out.

well shot... but external sound overlay in videos is never good. gorgeous cinematography though. animation's a bit distracting / doesn't fit the aesthetic.

I think they did a good job with the external sounds. Pretty decent video overall. 5 stars for the kitty scene.

Blah blah blah, art! Just put the band in a warehouse and film Fallon walking aimlessly while singing the lyrics. Video=done!

Great video. External sounds normally don't work, but in this instance it worked very well. And yes, the animation was a weird match for the aesthetic, but it didn't take away from the video at all.

A Fleshlight would probably do him some good as well.

this pretty much just sounds like the gaslight anthem.

why not just release it under that name?

Outside of this song and Black Betty and the Moon, the rest of the record is pretty different sounding.

Mary Ann is a straight up gaslight song, too. I'm a huge fan of this project, but even i have to admit that.

cherry blossoms is a straight up tom waits song.

"Black Betty and the Moon" doesn't sound THAT much like Gaslight. If it were on a Gaslight, it would be the "odd" song.

hahah correct. "oddball" is a word he's used a lot to describe Film Noir, the new Biloxi Parish song and a few others

Is this video based on what it's like to be Ben Weasel?

Good song and album...but let's not get crazy folks

Music videos without the band actually in have always bothered me. Great song though.

Sometimes I like to pronounce "crow" like "cow". It's pretty fun, but only for a little while.

Report

publichousing (September 21, 2011)

Elsie is definitely the best record released this year (yeah, it's even better than the latest Ampere and Trap Them records), and I love this song, but they should've chosen one of their less Gaslight-sounding songs for the first single/video. "I Witnessed a Crime" would've been perfect.

Ah well. Great video. Great song.

awesome video, awesome song.

Can't tell the difference, not really a side project? Good Gaslight song though.
