You’ve probably already seen this video (it already has over 1 million views in under 48 hours) by the amazingly awesome band OK Go but I couldn’t help put post it here…it’s just too amazing. It’s for the song “This Too Shall Pass” off of their new album “Of the Blue Colour of the Sky”.
Their video for “Here It Goes Again” is still one of my favorites. I’m glad that they were able to allow people to embed their videos once again. If you haven’t seen this post by Damian from back in January, they had a dispute with their record label about allowing blogs and such using the videos.
It blows my mind that they were able to set this whole sequence up. Obviously they had it rigged to be fail safe but even still…that would take a whole lot of planning, a whole lot of people and a whole lot of patience. This amazing Rube Goldberg Machine was constructed over several months by Syyn Labs and the band in a 2-story warehouse in Echo Park, CA.
Am I a horrible person for not giving a shit about this video?
A little advice for Ok Go!:
Time for a new schtick.
How about this one. Write some good songs!
OH SNAP!!!
I just made that bald guy, who's always moving to stay in the shot cause he's the star, cry like a little hipster bitch.
