Eskimeaux - “Broken Necks” (Official Video)

Eskimeaux’s O.K. is a collection of sad songs that sound really happy. “Broken Necks,” save for its uplifting final verse, is probably the track that best represents that divide, and the video for it decides to engage with its whimsy side rather than get into the dark feelings underneath. And it’s a really fun video because of it! Gabrielle Smith starts things off with a breakfast of moving cereal boxes and stop-motion living before venturing out onto the streets and roofs of Brooklyn. Dancing stuffed animals, dancing humans, and backflips follow, and it all wraps up on the beach for the song’s emotional climax. Watch it via NPR .
