Pitchfork Forkcast: Video: A Place to Bury Strangers: "To Fix the Gash in Your Head"

Video: A Place to Bury Strangers: "To Fix the Gash in Your Head"

The low-budget video for "To Fix the Gash in Your Head", a song we had on repeat here about a week ago, from an album that earned a Best New Music rating, is a slice-of-the-touring-life montage. It shows the Brooklyn band putting on what looks to be a strobe-heavy live show geared toward sensory overload, the correct visual analogue to the music's pop-noise density. It also shows some of the more mundane aspects of playing clubs-- loading in gear, flipping off nosy camera-toting roadies, and veging out in front of the laptop, perhaps checking to see if the latest A Place to Bury Strangers video has been covered yet on Forkcast.
