Bon Iver’s Bonnaroo backers and proven Mark Mulcahy fans Elvis Perkins In Dearland are doing their own music in this clip for “Chains, Chains, Chains,” the first from their self-titled collection. There was a live video for fellow Elvis Perkins In Dearland track “Shampoo,” but that was a live video: This shadowy, foggy, cavernous, winged, captivating footage is clearly something else entirely. The spelunking was directed by Sean Pecknold, who’s done aesthetically similar work for his brother’s band Fleet Foxes.

Elvis Perkins In Dearland is out via XL.
