Wild Flag's (kinda) new (totally) awesome video

IT'S ALMOST TIME FOR YOUR LUNCH BREAK >>>

Supergroup Wild Flag (which played its first ever show at Northern in Olympia earlier this year) is set to release a self-titled debut record next week.

On Monday or Tuesday the venerable Rev. Adam McKinney sent me a link to the band's new video. Sadly, I'm just getting around to posting it on Spew now. McKinney points out that the video, besides being kick-ass, was directed by Tom Scharpling, host of the Best Show on WFMU, and director of videos by Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, Titus Andronicus and the New Pornographers.

McKinney also draws attention to points of interest like drummer Janet Weiss reading Henry Rollins' Get in the Van to an elderly man, and the band as a whole trashing a display of Arcade Fire's The Suburbs.
