Grizzly Bear

"Mourning Sound" (video)

Grizzly Bear are finally coming out of hibernation with a new album later this week, but before Painted Ruins arrives, the band have offered another teaser in the form of a "Mourning Sound" video.
 
The Beatrice Pegard-directed clip stars Harry Potter actress Clémence Poésy as a not-so-blushing bride. Limp decorations hang on the walls, as she stabs at the wedding cake and men play drums on each other's bare asses.
 
The camera then switches focus to an astronaut, a scientist and a synchronized swimming team, who team up for a choreographed dance sequence, before returning to Poésy.
 
It's all very surreal and Parisian, and you can check it out in the player below.
 
Painted Ruins is due out August 18 via RCA.
