@axisofinfinity other songs that are animated by anthony francisco shepherd are, the music scene by blockhead, and wail to god by ape school, both good songs and both are of the trippy video kind that i think he quite normally does but i love this guys animations for videos they're freaking awesome. just found his vimeo =D
Hunter's youngest son was hit by a train, and his elder son and wife were killed in a fire. The deer represents the grief and guilt caused by his inability to protect his family as he wanders the streets, stumbling though hallucinations, and tries to get away from from the pain. The only way to do so is to end it all.
This is, of course, my entirely subjective reading. I am probably completely wrong.
great music and it would have been a great video if only the man didn't look so much like the manwhore from the newgrounds video now i'm just confused
I do not know any of the interprets...but this is just real art. I have never seen so moving clip before, never heard such balanced music....and, of course, there is no need to mention lyrics and singing. Thank you, all the people, whoever it is...thank you very much.
Great song. But give Danger Mouse some credit, everybody is talking about Jack White, but Jack just provided vocals to this song - and he is amazing as a singer, but it's Brian and Daniele who really needs to take credit for this masterpiece. (IMO)
@jackdanielsparrow "Or even Dangermouse have." Are you implying he's not as talented as Jack or Norah? He's got to be one of the best producers of this generation.
@DrDumb002 Didn't mean to imply that at all, he's very talented. I just meant that not many people know that, or consider him as talented as Jack and Nora, rather than implying that he's not as talented as they are.
Why thank 30 STM? Why? Because it's VEVO suggested it? No, thank Jack White, Danger Mouse, and Daniele Luppi for making such an amazing song and sharing it with the world.
We are a band that are heavily influenced by Jack White! if you can spare 2 seconds to listen to a band that are still trying to play real music then check us out at our channel!
forgive the brevity of my explanation. character limit.
if you notice, the 2nd son almost gets taken by the fire too. the man smashes the water-tower and saves the 2nd son from the fire, but then the son ends up drowning as a result. this little part of the video expresses that idea the man is powerless to stop the repercussions
Man shoots deer (the deer and its death can represent many different things. my interpretation is that the bullet he sent into the deer was "evil.") the deer, being innocent, didn't retain this evil; so it spills out of the deer with a bloody vengeance. (Karma train coming)
he chases the bloody vengeance to the portrait of his family and touches it only to be bombarded by the resultant events.
his family dies to train/fire/drowning. he kills himself so the evil can finally rest
A man, kills himself, after losing one son to a train, his wife to a fire and his other son to drowning. What is it? Simple? Karma? Malignance? Only one thing to do: Rewind... must watch it again... and again...
This song always reminds me of how one of the heresiarchs of Uqbar has declared that mirrors and copulation are abominable, because they increase the number or men... Or so Borges says.
@unSpunk, the album started as a soundtrack for an idea for a movie that wasn't going to be made. Then the album gained some popularity and they decided to go ahead an make the movie. This is I think like a fever dream of the protagonist, they had a thing on it on NPR.
@JohnKulo 30 seconds to mars added this video in their playlist and we found it from there! in other words, they sent us hear.and yes they are irrelevant to these comments and this video is awesome!
tune in to BBC 6music on 1/13/12 from 7-9pm to hear all of jack white's songs. and tune in on sunday at 12pm to hear red, white, and black: the jack white story
@maxnav12 Yeah I know Danger Mouse is a great producter and the album is really great but there is something different with Jack White's music, there is emotion, you know? you can fell it.
@u2sweetestallie Well, it's still up in the air. They don't really know what they're going to do with their next album. But they could continue to work with Danger Mouse. Bono is quite a tease with all the stuff he talks about and all the dates they project that end up being way wrong.
@HylianLycan He killed the deer. So as you can see something evil ( death ? ) comes out of the dead deer and one by one kills his whole family. In the end he kills the hunter too. Its like a grudge. Well i cant get the part where he is underwater but.. i hope i helped :)
@theseventhson95 I think the underwater part is like a flood of emotions or something and at the end the dear turns into himself. So maybe the dear is supposed to be himself all along, like his dark side or something and he just ends up killing himself. In the lyrics he says "its you and me against me" What I understood was that he is fighting himself.
@1166ultraviolet yes maybe thats right cause he says "im already fighting me" and the part with the flood seems to be his internal battle. However there are those trains that come out of the dead deers mouth. So its a double battle hence the name of the song.
@theseventhson95 another thing: when the man and boy die, they break into photos which could symbolize memories. They don't show the wife dying, just her losing the ring which I guess is to show that their marriage ended. I think the video may refer to an addict (it could just be any inner fight or even a reflection of a nightmare), but the lyrics don't quite line up for me.
