“Me & Mary” is the first single from Asobi Seksu’s third album Hush, the New York band’s followup to 2006′s Citrus. The track’s accompanying video was put thought of/designed by Brooklyn illustrator Dan-ah Kim, assisted by director Aaron Stewart-Ahn. He provided her with the a/v technical know-how. He also directed Death Cab For Cutie’s “I Will Possess Your Heart.” This one’s less creepy, largely because it doesn’t involve Ben Gibbard’s glasses. What it does involve is quite a number of windblown feathers, inky trees, dramatic guitar playing, and costume changes.

Hush is out 2/17 via Polyvinyl.

    It’s clear that this guitarist has already reached his peak and it’s all downhill from here. I think the fact that there’s no bassist or drummer says a lot about these people–no one wants to work with them. there’s nothing original Karma’s a bitch…..these people need to stop, Yuki is over thirty, she should have known better than to put on a blond whig. man do these guys suck!

    Terrible video. Agreed absolutely no charisma and just boring as hell. Total Lush rip off band.
