New Elbow Video - "Grounds For Divorce"
Nope, this isn't a cover of the Wolf Parade song. It's the excellent new single from Manchester-born quintet Elbow's fourth album, The Seldom Seen Kid. In fact, the only thing it shares with the WP song is its name: Everyone knows there are more than a few grounds for divorce. The intense but dreamy, sepia-toned video finds vocalist Guy Garvey gripping the mic in a beer and whiskey-drenched bar, the rest of the boys filling the room with the sounds of their bellows and instruments. Then a woman starts dancing by herself and Garvey gets inventive with his percussion.
"Someday we'll be drinking with the seldom seen kid..." Pretty bad ass.
The Seldom Seen Kid is out 3/17 in the UK on Fiction.

I liked "Grounds for Divorce" better when Big Business did it.

God I hate having to wait months for their stuff to finally get a US release. But, they have yet to disappoint me. Loved their last one. Is there a US release date?

Elbow are simply amazing and have been since Asleep in the Back.
The track is brilliant and I'm sure the album will bet, yet again, another stunner.
To hell with Vampire Weekend, we should all start hailing Elbow...

Love it! Guy Garvey has one of the most amazing voices in music. He also has a decent weekly radio show on BBC6.
