The lo-fi fuzz balls known as Unknown Mortal Orchestra are getting all nostalgic over everything with their latest release: a cover of Otis Redding's seminal "(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay." The track, recorded live on BBC6 Music with Marc Riley , is more faithful than I was anticipating it to be; it's got that languid beat, the sultry vocals, and shimmering guitar you loved from the original. The breakdown does let a little of the distortion of the guitar clang out, before they rein it in and close it out in style. This rendition isn't going [...]

Unknown Mortal Orchestra se he convertido en una banda que debe estar en los carteles de cualquier festival anunciado de este año, y aunque en México tuvimos la oportunidad de verlos en el Corona Capital del año pasado, nos hubiera gustado recibirlos ahora, con la promoción de su más reciente disco II, el cual es [...]
This week's top clips tended toward the brighter, flipper side of things. Because summer, probably! But before we dive into the quirk and laughs, there's a short filmic clip by a film director that is somewhat crushing. And then it's all roses, dancing congregations, and bouncing asses for days. Step this way for a roundup of the week's finest clips: Read More...
Performance art is very often absurd , and Unknown Mortal Orchestra highlight this absurdity in the video for "From The Sun." As the gleeful, carefree song plays along, we witness a man being humiliated with lipstick, slapped in the face, thrown to the ground and more. It's actually pretty fucked up. But to him, it's just another day at work. Watch it below.

Vídeo do Unknown Mortal Orchestra, dirigido por Rick Alverson, mostrando um cara que se dispõe numa espécie de manifestação artística onde as pessoas podem fazer o que bem entender com ele (e fazem). From The Sun faz parte do ótimo álbum II , lançado no início do ano.

Humiliation stars in Unknown Mortal Orchestra's video for "From The Sun" from II. Unknown Mortal Orchestra are busy guys, you know? They don't have time to star in their own music videos because...
Unknown Mortal Orchestra continúan con la promoción de su segundo álbum II (lanzado en febrero de este año vía Jagjaguwar ) y hoy nos traen un nuevo videoclip bastante intrigante pero chocante. Corresponde al sencillo "From the Sun" y en su video un hombre se convierte en una obra de arte con base en la violencia derivada del desprecio. Arriba pueden verlo. Este trabajo fue dirigido, fotografiado y editado por Rick Alverson (miembro de la banda Spokane ) conocido por su trabajo como director de películas independientes comoo [...]

Unknown Mortal Orchestra provides a little public humiliation in their latest video for "From The Sun." The song is one of the many excellent cuts to appear on their latest Jagjaguwar release II . Check out the Rick Alverson-directed visual below.

Between the close of their recent European tour and the launch of their imminent US tour dates in June, Unknown Mortal Orchestra are back today to share the video for II opener "From the Sun." Directed by Rick Alverson (of 'The Comedy' fame), the video embraces a darker, more serious tone than the band's earlier videos and usual brand of irreverent humor. Unknown Mortal Orchestra will soldier on (much like the protagonist in their new video), touring for the rest of 2013, including two more US jaunts and their newly announced European dates in November.

Unknown Mortal Orchestra sigue explotando su segunda producción II y nos presenta el video de su nuevo sencillo "From The Sun" dirigido por Rick Alverson, y es toda una tortura. Además el trio estará de gira por Europa en noviembre. Enjoy.

"From The Sun," the kick-off cut from Unknown Mortal Orchestra's sophomore album II is, like its namesake, bright and warm and feels like it belongs in the opening credits of a movie when the day is just beginning. UMO could have made a video that fit its sonic pleasantries but instead went for a subtle dichotomy with the visuals. With the direction of Rick Alverson ( The Comedy ), the main character in the clip is abused and humiliated by art students, all while this lovely song soundtracks. Check it [...]

Unknown Mortal Orchestra's II is out now, and they've just released the latest set of visuals for the album with this "From the Sun" video. The song is one of the standouts from the album, and for the video they explore the idea of what looks to be an art exhibit mixed with a friendly [...]

Shortly after Danny Perez’s well received video for So Good At Being In Trouble Unknown Mortal Orchestra is back with another great piece of footage. The track Swim and Sleep (Like a Shark) is certainly one of the lightest tracks on the II album and is accompanied by a video that embraces, or even amplifies this feeling. The parts are played by little marionettes that move around clumsily in a cartoonish, colorful setting. Though it gives the impression of [...]
El trío con base en Portland, Oregon, reveló el video para Swim and Sleep (Like a Shark) , tema preteneciente a su segundo álbum de estudio titulado II . El video está protagonizado por marionetas, pero a pesar de que la estética sea caricaturesca y algo infantil el tema en cuestión es bastante fuerte. Los protagonistas luchan contra sus demonios internos y hay escenas que dejan ver desnudez y masturbación. A continuación compartimos Swim and Sleep (Like a Shark) [...]
For an eyeful of puppet wang, check out the latest video from Portland via New Zealand third-eye-openers Unknown Mortal Orchestra, in which a sad marionette with Encino Man hair jerks off, cries, gives up on painting, and maybe enjoys a little reverse voyeurism. Funny like a Todd Solondz movie, it pairs oddly with the group's [...]
