Of Montreal may keep their little musical clique clicking at 130 bpm, but their videos clock in at a slightly slower rate. After an incredibly strange "let's put on a show" video for "Heimdalsgate Like a Promethean Curse," band leader Kevin Barnes and crew have let Scandinavian artist Sigrid Astrup create a little art project to serve as the video for "Suffer For Fashion." A pair of hands manipulates various objects — including some live performance clips —and creates a series of mixed media still lifes in largely stop motion footage. There's not too much going on, but the video has a definite handmade charm that makes it, well, charming. --> watch "Suffer For Fashion" at SubterraneanBlog.com
