Elephant 6 Make A Movie
Pop some popcorn and break out the bongs: The folks at E6 got together and made a movie, Major Organ and the Adding Machine, a sister piece to the 2001 album released by the mysterious band of the same name. Judging from this trailer, the Joey Foreman and Eric Harris-directed slab of surrealist zaniness is basically what we would've expected, including a dancing Mangum lobster, folks in fake bears, a submarine sailing the seas of soup, and a kid-piloted aeroplane over the sea. The cast also includes members of Stereofaves Olivia Tremor Control, Julian Koster, Elf Power's Andrew Rieger, and everyone from Dixie Blood Mustache.
All cool. As long Kevin Barnes doesn't do another nude scene. Look for the Major Organ DVD along with an expanded CD, out in '08 on Orange Twin.

Quite annoying that this is what Jeff Mangum is choosing to do with his time.

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME
when you have a lobster suit you have a certain responsibility to the people and from the trailer it is clear that mangum is fulfilling that responsibility
Score = 1
jz, the guy made one of the top 3 best records of the 1990's. at this point, if he wants to dance around in a lobster costume, let him dance around in a lobster costume. anyway, i'm pretty stoked for this.
