Thanks to Dodge for pointing us to five animated clips commissioned by Bright Eyes’ UK label, Polydor. Mr. Oberst does not appear, which is probably best (young man needs a haircut!). A gruesome highlight is the charcoal drawing of Conor’s post-apocalyptic ballad “No One Would Riot For Less” in which personified members of the animal kingdom get medieval on each other’s asses. The lizard in a wheelchair is out for blood, and the fox on a bicycle is murdered, too. Spoiler: the bears get blood all over their Rubik’s Cube.
