Yeasayer - "Ambling Alp"

Back in 2007, indie/experimental group Yeasayer made a great debut in All Hour Symbals. Now, with 2009 closing, the group has announced that in February of next year they will release their followup entitled Odd Blood. Along with that information came the first single "Ambling Alp" as well as a video. The song is fairly typical Yeasayer affair with a driving beat and rangey vocals. The video, however, is a somewhat untypical product. It features a lot of faceless individuals who (not too sure really what's going on but here we go) create a group of people out of some kind of ooze and spend the rest of the video naked and running (in slow-mo, female and (gulp) male) towards something. Then it ends. Great track though and a promising first taste of Odd Blood.
