Hmmm, how to explain this...
Well, North Carolina, you know?
It's the twelfth of America's original thirteen colonies. It's the birthplace of Dolley Madison. And currently it is home to Sparklehorse's Mark Linkous. This video is about ten minutes long.
Dreamt For Light Years In The Belly Of A Mountain is really quite lovely and worth your money. Trust us.

Nice to see some Sparklehorse love on the gum. The new album is wonderful. Where is this video from? Is this a Sparklehorse EPK (electronic press kit) video or something? It's very similar to some of their earlier EPK's. The horse head is a dead giveaway.
