Something Anorak – “I Am A Doctor” Video (Stereogum Premiere)
Last year, we named Bristol lo-fi duo Something Anorak a Band To Watch right around the time they released their debut album, Tiny Island, on Howling Owl Records. Today we can announce they’ve signed to Portland-based Lefse Records. To mark the occasion, the duo has released a video for the woozy, reverb-soaked single, “I Am A Doctor” by James and Mark Hankins. It follows the Barrett brothers’ hedonistic lifestyle in a countryside estate, where they pop champagne in pools and hit golf balls from each other’s mouths. Then, of course, there’s the creepy veggie-golem that gets resurrected by the mansion’s headmistress. It’s a slightly demented parallel reality that fits the song like a pair of tennis gloves. Watch the video below.
Tiny Island is out now via Howling Owl.
