The official video, premiered on pitchfork.tv. Here's what they have to say about it:
If the "Knickerbocker" video was a slide show, this one is more like the 19th-century sci-novel Flatland-- or the scene from that hott new movie phenomenon The Big Lebowski where nihilists from fictitious synth-pop group Autobahn go around with giant scissors trying to cut off Jeff Bridges' "johnson." Director Wade Shotter explains: "The initial inspiration for Fujiya & Miyagi's 'Sore Thumb' promo came from the idea of taking the simple visual language of early 80s wireframe/vector animation, which exists as a well known but purely digital format, and re-inventing it by building real physical wireframe structures. It followed that every graphic and detail should be made and shot in-camera to adhere to the same theme." So basically, Fujiya & Miyagi have wireframe exoskeletons now. And tanks.
