Rozwell Kid – “Kangaroo Pocket” Video (Stereogum Premiere)
West Virginia’s Rozwell Kid were among the acts performing at Stereogum’s very own SXSW showcase last month. In their new video for the melodic guitar churn “Kangaroo Pocket,” the lead track from their recent album Too Shabby, the four-piece plays through their latest single totally headless. It’s a lighthearted clip, but the cartoonish gore plays on the sense of helplessness that inspires so many great punk rock songs. If you want to catch Rozwell Kid’s live show, they’re about to embark on a pretty massive North American tour. Watch director Geoff Hoskinson’s video and see the band’s extensive tour dates below.
