Video: Islands: "Don't Call Me Whitney, Bobby"

All dogs go to heaven when they're in Montreal collective Islands. In the band's new video for "Don't Call Me Whitney, Bobby", "South Park" meets Yoshi's Island (no pun intended).

The colorful animated short features a series of silly happenings, including some "doot doot, doot doot" text, a massive dog food purchase, a muffin baby, and, finally, Islands driving down a mountain in a thunderstorm, then driving on a sun-puppy's back in outer space, and then driving to the aforementioned heaven. I won't spoil the ending.

Moment of silence for the ending of Ms. Houston and Mr. Brown's marriage. By the way.

As previously reported, Islands are currently on an extensive fall tour with Subtitle.
