New Dntel Video [Feat. Arthur & Yu] - "The Distance"

Jimmy Tamborello's the only one man enough to show his face in the vid for "The Distance"; contributors Arthur & Yu phone it in with people-operated puppet likenesses, leaving bellboy Jimmy to carry the bags, serve the chicken, and craft most of the track's beachfront soundscape. Hardly Art? More like hardly working. Poor Dntel.

UPDATE: Guess it's not Jimmy! Which makes him just as lazy as Arthur & Yu.

That doesn't really look like Jimmy T to me?

To a fault is the obvious hightlight

Decidedly not Mr. Tamborello...surely he's too stage shy for frolicking on film?
