[ShinnSin]

@dr15700 That makes sense.

[sounynoma]

[quickgears]

[butterfly8211015]

[gordharris]

I congratulate you, KUDOS!

[1forestcat]

Why is this in the same category of the movie "Gunless?"

[themegaTECHCHECK]

love this song

[ellonysman]

Real music video's are faster scans pans thru the strange behaviour ....and usually wierd with artistic stretch or whatever...this is toooooo clear, like the ceiling bit, that was better...you almost have it! good band by theway...

[jacobmcgee187]

@ellonysman Clearly thats how the band wanted it because it fits perfectly.

[MichaelBatherson]

@jacobmcgee187 Yes

[MsIrene15]

MOLA! ^^ xd

[hendrix77777]

Why wont hipsters just die..

[WatchesOnlyPros]

Brilliant, better than that milk commercial in canada XD

[iamjeflacroix]

Enjoy the music. If you don't like what you heard, at least you extended your personal experience beyond your typical norm. You can't like all music, but you can respect the artists for their creativity and take a little pride in knowing you kept an open mind to a music scene where most consumers act over objectively, usually without any base of musical knowledge or experience.

That being said, I love the song, I love the band, and love the label. Arts&Crafts makes me proud to be a Canadian.

[13374444444444444444]

This is awesome.

[Icancount124]

great

[2TheFot]

its an alright song and all and im not raggin on it but i did get the feeling the guy in the beginning couldn't sign ... at all... just lacking general pitch control and sounded like he was wailing... or was that the point? im not saying i can do better and i clicked on this video because it was featured (to avoid the obvious comebacks :D)

[eastcoastbroccoli]

you dont know these people so dont judge them by what you see in a 3 minute clip, and to those saying they are hipsters clearly lack the insight to realize that this is a video to support a song. why are the artists being judged on what they wear? maybe look at their clothes in context to the video and song you pretentious dicks. dont watch the video if you dont want to

[oyu8]

this shit's gay.fking hipsters.go download this song on itunes and keep your jeans tight you unknowing pretentious bastards.lol.

[Viruspirate]

damn you hipster sucks fuck this shit

[contraud]

too bad the ginger can't sing

[RainAngel111]

a bit of an acquired taste

[Vain11dan]

interesting video. And I agree with mbrunnme :D go canada

[MegaShamilton]

@Vain11dan HELL YEAH Canada!!!

[Fatsnail13]

what the fuck is going on?!

[jboy4493]

I LOVE IT - GLORIOUS

[HaiXBriannuhh]

love this video..

[AStealthyRust]

trippy

[Aebottawa]

The music is well preformed, and the visuals are interesting, but I'm left with the feeling that these kids have absolutely nothing to write about. Anyway, it's a good folky, indie, surrealist thingy for whoever likes this kind of stuff.

[imlivinfortheweekend]

They're great live :)

[kunschner]

FAAAKE!!! THAT IS SO FAKE.... lol

[limsae]

@kunschner Yes. We all see that its fake >_>

[N4GMetal]

Looks like something from Beetlejuice. Cool.

[delgei]

what the fuck!?!?!?!

[BradBRAUNSTEIN]

WACK

[Viruspirate]

my ears are bleeding you call this music?

[Bobcat665]

This is seriously twisted.

[MrCrazyChristian]

aaaaaggggggggghhhh!!!!! jesus christ

[PeripheralMan]

Absolutely toneless and melody-less. The state of music in Canada is truly pathetic.

[Cookoo4Coconutz]

@PeripheralMan Canada has presented the world with a large number of amazing musicians and bands. It has also produced shit like Justin Bieber. Aside from him and people like him, I'm proud to be Canadian.

[mbrunnme]

@PeripheralMan hmm, you must not know much about music in Canada if you say that I would think. . .

[2ndHans]

weird

[migikiwi]

that was pretty cool!

[TarlachSkynet]

The most I can get from this is a new appreciation for what music sounds like to people who are clinically diagnosed as tone deaf.

[Viruspirate]

@TarlachSkynet LOL!! you took the words right out my mouth

[JaroslavProductions]

please sub to me!!!!!

[gothbelt]

ah...who the hell cares how creative it is its freaking queer.

[1unusedname]

@1unusedname Kind of pathetic that you can't post a link to THIS FUCKING SITE without having to dick around with it

[TheTwinkiefactory]

acid trip!

[RaNdOmSoNgLiStEnEr]

This Video Is Amazing :D Love How Creative It Is!

[shpshftr66]

Weird. Cool, but weird.

[SarahSal46]

Creative, creepy, cool?

The song is nice :)

[Anzvillan]

to bad that girl isn't in the band n e more.

[hulagirl93]

Incredibly Intelligent, have you lot listened to the lyrics? Its perfectly captivating, well done. Amazing.

[gettoday]

nice

[UkiSmileyFace]

I like the vid, it's definitely creative, and fun, but it's really creepy. I mean, I kinda freaked out at first. But, by the middle of the vid, I was actually really into it:))) I think this was a crazy but super fun idea:)))

[tasfan92]

I was pleasantly surprised to see this on the home page as I share a hometown, school (well, sort of) and church with one of the band members. pity they didn't win.

[jestaaaah]

haha this is so cool!

[bff4ever1234]

this is creepy but kool

[Freakoutnicola]

very amazing.

[OffTheCuffTelevision]

Cool Vid

Check Out Our Vids For Even More Laughs

[wallflowerification]

SUCH a fun video!!!

[LizaGrebs]

if anyone asks if im high, id' say in pretty up there after this vid XP

[flanstar]

unfortunate that such an interesting music video had to be ruined by the actual music in said video.

[DanielSyncapse]

nice

[bren5209]

yike! excellent video editing thought!

[dimitrikozma]

Surreal!

[jacquardeur]

This is verry good, extremely creative and I suspect low cost, wonderful work guys

[popoto31x31]

/watch?v=RN7nneWgveU

[FuckingStanz]

hipster shit. tone down the 'I TRY TOO HARD TO BE ARTISTIC' crap. sheesh.

[1unusedname]

@FuckingStanz lol they probably hang out at those hippy-dippy coffee shops with the couches and the crappy art on the walls and what-not.

[angel123chuchay]

amazing.. ^_^

[dumfree254]

Do it again dark. Lower range vocals & a darker background in the video. Slow it a notch & do a slow blues lead on guitar. Die it down then bring it back with a bass & drum bit with no vocals.

Then fade to black.

[Dusearly]

The video feels like a salvia trip

[TuVasCrever]

@Dusearly Waw, you thought exactly what I thought o.o

[drewqq]

fantastic.  visionary.

[MTLKEBEK]

@drewqq Stfu hipster

[1unusedname]

@MTLKEBEK Douchey. Pretentious. : D

(Just so there's no misunderstanding,I'm referring to drewqq's comment.)

[aranhilfp01]

awesome! both the video and music.

[alchemography]

The song is brilliant.

It seems like they were trying to be a bit too original with the video. Interesting nonetheless!

[BttClass]

Fricken' sweet.

[spenserkantor]

whats with all the negativity , its a great song

[Nightss10]

The disturbing video ruined the great song.

[iSOBigD]

Not my cup of tea, but the video's done very nicely. The background (room) looks like pictures, not even a video. Good camera matching!

[EvanJStern]

Very creative.. and extremely creepy.

[jay21317]

@EvanJStern couldn't agree more

[valdezmiguel2]

great video!

stupid song!

stupider band!

[imgicked]

@valdezmiguel2 chirp when you get signed to art & crafts

[valdezmiguel2]

@imgicked chirp when you finish sucking all that cock.

[MTLKEBEK]

Fucking hipsters I hate all of you.

[elkwithinstruments]

the female singer is so pretty

[frankiepie235]

stupid hipster shit...

[spacedout89]

@frankiepie235 jealous :P

[MTLKEBEK]

@frankiepie235 Agreed

[mangaas]

Not my usual cup of tea in music, but I find myself listening to it over and over. Great video too.

[Timmay123456789]

fcking awesome video\

[kookiekat333]

Definitely a visual delight. Bright, imaginative and pleasing to watch. Should have won the Juno. Obviously the winner was a political not based on 'video' merit.

[ctwolf]

@kookiekat333

thats how life usually works, "its not what you know its who you know" all comes full circle in the end doesnt it?

[TruPhan]

Great video, but for some reason it isn't coming up in the searches; I was only able to find it through Arts & Craft's channel.

Seriously, one of the best vids of 2010.

[HeyJaw]

Man - Nickleback would kick this bands ass.

Kididng - Man, I'm starting to love Arts&Crafts. I only know of them though Broken Social Scene. They have many good bands on there. Amazing.

[ltgreatsocks]

Holy shit, there isn't a faggy flame war going on. Sweet.

[safesolvent]

really great work josh!

[Black000Box]

WOO HOO JUNO 2010!!

[h8marshmellow]

kick azz video, XD...

[BrocoliSuportr]

very cool..

[theej12354]

really good

[ToobeYoo]

The color themes progressing as they do just dawned on me... I was more distracted by the disembodied people. Forms something of a rainbow, how funny.

[cuttoothom]

Great video...but it was already posted, wasn't it?

I think I favorited it the first time.

[Mineav]

5/5
