Video: The Fiery Furnaces: "Duplexes of the Dead"
The best thing about this typically quirky mid-tempo number from Widow City is definitely the thick, string-like sounds that swoop in and serve, more or less, as the chorus. The video for the track finds the Friedberger visages being projected onto surfaces in a constantly changing urban streetscape while a jawa-like figure in a cloak with glow-in-the-dark trim moves around mysteriously through the scene. As with the last couple of videos from the record, the Fiery Furnaces aren't giving much away.
