I finished making this video for The War on Drugs single “Needle in Your Eye #16” a few weeks ago, and let their label (Secretly Canadian) take it around the internet on their own PR schedule before I uploaded it. But I’ve been DYING to share it with you!

The video is made entirely of clips from the Prelinger Archive of Moving Images at the fantastic resource, archive.org. So thanks to them for providing such an amazing service, and such great quality Public Domain films. Long live remix culture!

Don’t forget, you should really buy this album, Wagonwheel Blues. It’s fantastic, gorgeous, entrancing. My friend Adam is a gifted songwriter and I promise it will provide an amazing soundtrack to the rest of your summer.
