As mega fans of TV On The Radio (their debut album, Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes, is one of those “desert island” picks), we were pretty psyched to see that next week marks the release of their newest record, Seeds, after a several-year hiatus.
And then our inner geek freaked when we saw who was in the Speed Racer–inspired video for “Happy Idiot”: Paul Reubens (yes, Pee-wee Herman) and Amy Pond from Doctor Who (who apparently does not ride around in the TARDIS all day and is, in fact, an actress named Karen Gillan).
The Danny Jelinek–directed clip follows Racer Steven as he tries to capture past glories in his sweet ride known as Sky Blue, but is thwarted by hallucinations that cause him to lose his mind. We think? Maybe it just caused us to lose our minds.
Either way, we really like the song.
Seeds is out November 17. Keep tabs on the band and their tour schedule via their Twitter feed.
