Metronomy

"Night Owl" (video)

Metronomy released their latest LP Summer 08 just earlier this summer, and now the Joe Mount-helmed project has delivered a video for the single "Night Owl."
 
The clip was directed by Mr. Oizo and shot in the Palm Desert. It follows Mount and his girlfriend on a roadtrip that takes a dark, murder-y turn. It's more surreal and endearing than gory and realistic looking, though, with the dead bodies represented by obvious plastic dummies and a cartoonish brain getting outfitted with animatronics.
