[awesome video alert] COOLRUNNINGS "Chorus"

 

The Internet world is flipping out today over Tennessee AnimalCollectivecore band COOLRUNNINGS' new video, and I can't stop watching it. The video for "Chorus" was done by Rafael Bonilla Jr., a visual artist from California, and his style is somewhere between Wallace and Gromit and a Primus album cover, and the video simply spreads your eyes wide and glazes them with wonder and slight confusion.

COOLRUNNINGS is also in the middle of a kickstarter event to get their album, Dracula Is Only The Beginning pressed on vinyl. Check it out and consider donating that extra thousand bucks you have laying around so they can play in your living room!

Sam Ueda is the Boston Phoenix's summer music intern. We think he did a bang-up job on this year's 50 Bands 50 States issue, which was his debut in our fine pages.
