With “Snowblind,” +/- {Plus Minus} showed us they weren’t afraid of dramatic, narrative video treatments. Same goes for X’s On Your Eyes‘s slighter “Unsung,” which sadly isn’t a Helmet cover. What it is is a sweet song accompanied by a David Lobser-directed video starring Alice In Wonderland with a pierced nose and a forlorn look along with her inexpressive White Rabbit and a helpful Jiminy Cricket that leads her to an hidden surprise — which makes her mushroom-tea party a bit more exciting.
Xs On Your Eyes is out via Absolutely Kosher.

alice in wonderland much?
Say what you want about the video, but +/- don’t get near enough credit for being a truly great band.
Agreed! Xs On Your Eyes is one of my favorites this year. And they keep getting better and better with every album.

glorious
That chick looks like she would be totally into me.
It’s definitely a tribute to ‘Alice In Wonderland’. There are so many elements of this movie.
Mark it up as another +/- song that I’m into.
I think the video is great, love the fantasy style of it all. Also, isn’t Alice going out of copyright soon, so we can all use it without paying for licensing?
Great song, cool video, liked the narrative element & surprise ending, especially no gravity cars!
Alice has great gams.
The lady is very cute especially with that outfit.
