It’s flapper girls, confession booths, and post-war period-piece attire in this rather stylish “coming attraction” type vid for one of our fave Cold War Kids tunes, “Hang Me Up To Dry.” The Malloy Bros. (White Stripes, Foo Fighters) produced and have a story arc in mind that we can’t quite follow, but who needs plot when the Kids look so dreamy? Lock up your daughters; or, don’t hire CWK to cater your party.

    Uh I thought they already had a video for this with the kids at a school

    I’m shocked. I actually thought that song was really good. I could’ve done without the random piano, though.

    Oh, and I’m neutral about the video.

    They look and sound like The Afghan Whigs did 13 years ago.

  11. Wait, this song isn’t about laundry?

  12. I heard this song at a coffee shop this week. How far those boys have come in a year.

    I love the song, thought the video was eh.
    I can see this song getting very annoying after awhile though.

  17. Elly  |   Posted on Jan 26th, 2007

    This totally sounds like the French Kicks to me.

    Is it just me or is anyone else getting a bit tired of characters in the videos lipsynching along to parts of the song…when that girl in the confessional starts to sing the chorus I was dreading the rest of the video being well-placed sing alongs…thankfully it wasn’t…but that’s been done way too often in my opinion.

    I can’t be bothered to listen to this song or watch the video, I’m WAY too busy hating them for believing in The Jesus.

    Do these jackasses have another song? This is the only one I *ever* hear.
