Montreal based band The Dears have a clever new animated video for their track “Here’s To Death OF All The Romance”, off their new album Times Infinity Volume One.
After forming in 1995, The Dears have formed quite an interesting sound of clever indie music. Recently they’ve been releasing these colourful eye popping music videos, such as “I Used To Pray For The Heavens To Fall” and this one here. They both really stand out as their almost childlike with all the bright neon colours, but fun enough to give an upbeat accompaniment to the track.
According to Under The Radar, the keyboardist/singer for The Dears Natalia Yanchak chatted with Brooklyn Vegan about the video. Check out what she said:
“Illustrator and animator Sinbad’s style brings a classic Montreal vibe to this video in that it’s bright and irreverent, inviting while almost abstract. His animated mixtape is pretty cool too. This is likely the most abstract music video The Dears have ever made, second only to the never released, avant-garde ‘S&M boxer’ video for ‘Heathrow or Deathrow.’ With ‘Here’s to the Death of All the Romance’ the band is depicted as a group of loafing, off-duty CIA agents who can’t help but sit around Saint-Louis Square while a praying mantis courts her snail lover. It’s so very Montreal. Like ‘Men In Black’ meets ‘Bee Movie.'”
You’ll have to check out the great track and the fun popping video for The Dears’ “Heere’s To Death Of All The Romance”. If you’re a fan of indie pop and great upbeat music, you’ll be hooked.
