Black Lips just released this video for new single "I'll Be With You," from their lastest record 200 Million Thousand (which we reviewed here). The band's Jared Swilley had this to say about the song and video:
"I'll Be With You" is a pretty sappy, but heartfelt, song about a
dear friend. I wanted the video to reflect the feeling and mood of the
song as I feel it. I wanted to kind of recreate old home movies I've
seen of my family in the '60s, but make it a little more subversive and
somewhat sinister. We playboy's laying around, and some satanic
elements, and Charlie Manson. But still semi-innocent and silly and
happy. It was alot of fun to make it. I got my roommate to dress as a
clown, and we got to throw cake all over my friends kitchen, making her
scream like a maniac, while we laughed like maniacs.
