Pitchfork.tv: Oxford Collapse: "The Birthday Wars" [Video Premiere]
This video is a trip, man. Oxford Collapse are a peppy, melodic rock band, in some ways like classic 1980s indie rock, but the video for "The Birthday Wars", from their upcoming album Bits, is decidedly abstract. Saturated colors, video noise, and color negatives stream by-- but if you look hard enough, you can also see the band in there.
