The Worm lives deep underground, digging up the best of what you haven't heard so you can complete your music education. We're also throwing in some stuff you have heard because it rules so hard. And because we can. Boo ya.
When I See You
Directed by Anthony Ernest Garth - the man responsible for the weird and dreamy clip for the White Stripes' "Hotel Yorba" - the "When I See You" video takes full advantage of Los Angeles's world-renowned Bob Baker Marionette Theater. The clip features some truly amazing puppets, including a chorus line of jaunty ants and two singing watermelons. The pair of fruits certainly seem to know the song, and nobody "sings along" on the chorus more enthusiasm than they do! But while the marionettes are adorable, the pugilists are menacing, and the audience is more than a little terrifying, the five members of The Moog are still the stars of the video: performing "When I See You" (and bouncing off the walls of their besieged shack) with good humor and irrepressible energy all the while crammed into a tiny house on the set of a theatrical production.
Undaunted by the close quarters, The Moog play just as ferociously as they would at any gig. But it's unclear whether the bizarre theater (nuns? robots?) crowd can hear what they're doing - they might be too distracted by the evil clown and grizzly bear who are battling it out on the boards. The audience members themselves are bizarre in their own right: nuns, robots, monsters, people dressed as insects, leering grownups and oddly-attentive children. Szabo and The Moog peer at them from the window of their little house, pinned in, apprehensive, and anxious to escape.
