Have you seen MGMT‘s new video for “It’s Working” yet? No?! What’s taking you so long? Watch it now! Go ahead, I’ll wait…Done? Good. Now tell me, what the f*$% just happened there?
I didn’t think the band could possibly top their last surrealist masterpiece for “Flash Delirium” where band member Ben Goldwasser had some kind of giant eel living in his throat, but it looks like they’ve done it.
What exactly happens in “It’s Working”? Well, it’s hard to say – the boys get some kind of package in the mail and build a cardboard contraption (that has a built in ice cream maker? Score!) that ends up swallowing the band whole…I think? Oh, who cares what happens! The point is this video is so unbelievably awesome I want to watch it again and again and again. Maybe one day I’ll understand…
