Of course any video with ventriloquists and a homecoming party in a mansion (hint hint “Congratulations”) would be mildly amusing, but this video quickly takes a turn for the downright freaky. While the message might vaguely be something about the effects of war–literal or figurative–it’s not the easiest sell coming from a duo who admits to supping up on drugs between records to live the rockstar life. It takes a few viewings to piece together, and then the maddening bombardment of chords and images at the finale reveals itself as the birth of the surfing bear creature on the album’s cover…. maybe? At least that’s going full circle.
