Ed Schrader’s Music Beat – “Laughing” Video (Stereogum Premiere)
Ed Schrader’s Music Beat just finished tearing it up as Future Islands’ opener, and today they put out Party Jail, the follow up to their incendiary debut, Jazz Mind, after a series of great singles including “Pantomime Jack,” “Televan,” and “Pink Moons.” To mark that release the band enlisted Dylan Going to make a video for album cut “Laughing.” It follows a man in a bondage mask (whose casual manner reminds me of Jon Glaser’s perpetually ski-mask-wearing hero from Delocated) as he tries out online dating. Watch it below.
Party Jail is out now via Infinity Cat.
