Video: Dope Body - "100 Mile"

The first video from Dope Body's fantastic new Nupping LP has surfaced, and comes in the form of a short for "100 Mile" directed by Theo Anthony. Take a gander above.

The video entails an old man's birthday that takes an interesting twist after he's presented with the cake. The party quickly turns into a wilderness adventure complete with pyrotechnics, blood, and some sort of creepy rabbit/wolf creatures. The style of the film reminds us of watching music videos on MTV after school in 1995, much like some of the sounds that emanate from the rest of Dope Body's new record out now on Hoss.

Theo's last video was also Baltimore-based, a short for Future Islands' "The Ink Well".

Video: Future Islands - "The Ink Well"

This past weekend Future Islands played sold out shows in Raleigh, Baltimore, and New York City. Also this past weekend, across the Atlantic and over in the Czech Republic, the finishing touches were placed on a video for their new single dubbed "The Ink Well".

The video was directed by Theo Anthony, a film student originally from Annapolis but currently studying in Prague. Theo describes this short as a "reaction towards being in a new place where you really don't know what's happening." Anthony was consumed mostly by an unfamiliar environment found within the confines of the encroaching baroque architecture, until he found a massive field that overlooked the city of Prague. These feelings seem to explode in this short, an apt accompaniment to "The Ink Well".
