The found footage parade continues: After “My Body Is A Cage,” Sam Amidon’s covered wagons, and HEALTH’s unofficial slice of “Heaven,” Brooklyn melancholic noisemongers A Place To Bury Strangers nip and tuck the late ’70s sci-fi film Lathe Of Haven in the David Yoonha Park-directed video for “The Falling Sun.” Get your Ursula K.

Remember how MGMT offered filmic homage in a different way? Ahh, Brooklyn.

A Place to Bury Stangers is out on Killer Pimp.
