Miike Snow: Burial

Friday, July 31st, 2009

Oh, Miike Snow – blowing up like we thought you would. Just like the rest of the album, this first music video for ‘Burial’ takes takes you on a wild journey and leaves you dizzy (in a good way) and wondering what’s next?  A totally appropriate video for a band that wants to keep their mystique – not showing any of the band members, or really anything that has to do with the band – or does it!?

Wu-Tang Lego: Da Mystery of Chessboxin’
