"Mission Control," the first video off The Dandy Warhols' sixth full-length, ...Earth to the Dandy Warhols..., epitomizes what the band and the album are: innovative and smart, self-aware and informed, and with a strong -- but never generic -- pop sensibility.

Shot in grainy sepia tones in the Dandys' own Odditorium, the video, directed by Mike Bruce, finds the band in space, playing their instruments as they float in zero gravity, frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor singing authoritatively, transmitting the band's message to the world down from the Moon. It's clever and fun, playing both on historical events and future occurrences, totally stuck-in-your-head catchy, the perfect depiction of what the Dandy Warhols are.

  • The Dandy Warhols are Amazing .

  • Great video - Courtney T-T coolest man on Earth and Outer Space - Zia still cool and rocking and beautiful after 17 years of the Dandys - Pete as cool a guitar man as you'll ever meet and Brent - King of the backbeat and backcomb - continue forever - we need you!

  • since 3:17 until the last second of the song ...ok it's a detail but the last 15 seconds reminds me to the 70s Tangerine Dream sound... or it is the Klaus Schulze 70s sound ? ...it's probably Zia Mc Cabe good idea...

  • the greatest in universe

  • Hell Yeah!

  • About my fifth listen to the entire album and must conclude it's got fang's like a bloody lovebug from a farfar land 'er something. And I must agree with most finest of fine, refined musical tastes expressed here, the Dandy Warhols still rule.

  • HIPSTERS!!!!

  • Long live the Dandys!  Wish most of today's music would go away and we could all live off of this excellence.

  • @RussianCivilian Lucky yu :D
