In his short but prolific video-directing career, Tom Scharpling has yet to make a bad video. His latest burst of inspiration comes in the form of a video for Death Cab For Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard’s soft-rocking solo single “Teardrop Windows.” In the video, Gibbard, on the advice from a record-label weasel, attempts to reinvent himself as a “bad boy,” and that description alone should really be all the motivation you need to click play. Watch the video below.
Gibbard’s solo album Former Lives is out now on Barsuk.

did anyone else notice the awesome Stimpy graffiti behind him (3:36)?
And when he has the Ed Hardy hat on he reminds me of Vanilla Ice…..
If you had told me the man who made Postal Service would wear an Ed Hardy hat at some point, I would have punched you right in the mouth for being a dirty F’in liar.
that was the opening of the sum41 video.
