Friday Bears: New Videos from Grizzly Bear and The Mantles

Apologies for the lack of posts for the past several days. Let's just put that all behind us and just say I was missing, when in fact I was just doing too much outside of this.

Grizzly Bear premiered the second video from this year's oft-blogged album Veckatimest for "Ready, Able." The video, directed by Allison Schulnik, features the eternally creepy art-forms of stop-motion animation and clay-mation. And yet, somehow, those creepy things are displayed in an even creepier than normal fashion, with clay blended together to garbage-tinged mess.

San Francisco garage band The Mantles have premiered their first video for their single "Don't Lie," from the band's self-titled debut LP (via Slumberland). The video mostly uses "Don't Lie" as a score for the 1973 film Paper Moon, starring Ryan and Tatum O'Neal set in Kansas during the Great Depression. The revelance of the time period to "Don't Lie" is a mystery, but whatever.
