Here’s our new video. It’s for the song “Man Near the Surface of the Earth” from the album However Strange which you can listen to and download here or buy in the popular cassette format from Burger Records here.
The video is kind of an homage to the 1968 film The Swimmer starring Burt Lancaster, which was itself based on a story by John Cheever. We’re very grateful to director Robert Sobul and his team for making this for us. Guylaine and James even have a brief cameo a few minutes in! Sadly Chris could not make it to the shoot that day because he was busy counting stacks of gold coins in his castle. That has a moat.

Thanks to a (likely inadvertertent) lapse in taste by New York Tyrant publisher Giancarlo DiTrapano, Détective’s James Greer was interviewed at some length for VICE, which in general deals with much worthier subject matter than him.
In any case, should you be so inclined, you can read the interview here.
