Eels have revealed the official music video for their new single ‘Good Night On Earth’, taken from their upcoming fourteenth studio album Extreme Witchcraft, due 28th January via PIAS and the band’s own E Works Records.
Directed by Steven Mertens (Sheryl Crow, Regina Spektor, Elohim/Wiz Khalifa), this nightmare vision sees an intergalactic clash of the titans. As EELS leader Mark Oliver Everett, aka E, is immortalised as an anchorman of Godzillian proportions, disaster strikes, the world burns, laser warfare ensues, and an evil lobster kaiju must be stopped.
E says:
“Just another newscaster Godzilla fighting a lobster from space video.”
Fuzzed up indie with E’s smokey bourbon of a voice singing positive vibes over the destruction played out in the video. Another magical 3 minutes from this mighty band.
