Alpine Party Rock with Thee Oh Sees

If musician Mick Collins hipped me to the new Death documentary trailer via Twitter, author Colson Whitehead (John Henry Days, Zone One) has done the same with the new Thee Oh Sees video. Tweets Whitehead, "Been using Thee Oh Sees' 'Chem-Farmer' as get-to-work music lately. Now there's a video..." That rolling double-drummer groove makes me wanna get to work, too (and yes, I fixed Whitehead's grammar; I'm nitpicky like that). Check out the video below.

Sadly, Thee Oh Sees aren't playing Bumbershoot this year. I loved their 2011 set (first time I caught the band with Finberg in the line-up). The good news: they're playing The Capitol Hill Block Party. Which means...I won't see you there!

Since I grew up in Wisconsin, this video looks completely normal to me.
