Earlier this year, Modest Mouse returned from a years-long absence with the new album Strangers To Ourselves, and as we learn from their new video for the single "The Ground Walks, With Time In A Box," they may have just been spending that time away perching on Oregon garbage dumps. In the new video, the band lives in a fantastical dreamworld made entirely out of trash, wearing plastic-bag headdresses and clutching scepters made of broken lightbulbs. My favorite might have been the crown of discarded keys. The clip features pretty-lady apparitions and kabuki sorcerers, and it ends with Isaac Brock fighting a guy dressed entirely in old ties, leading to a blood finale that's probably meant to evoke the fight between the Mountain and the Viper on the last season of Game Of Thrones. Check it out below.
