Nearly as much man-in-bearsuit as Nic Cage in The Wicker Man

Well, here’s the video for the first single from what will (unless this is the best year for music in a long, long time) most likely be one of my favorite records of the year: of Montréal’s Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?

The song’s called “Heim­dals­gate Like a Promethean Curse,” and the video is as odd or odder. Have a look:

And here’s the song itself:

of Mon­tréal — “Heim­dals­gate Like a Promethean Curse”

Hissing Fauna (’cause there ain’t no way you’re going to get me to type out that whole title twice in one post–nuh uh) comes out Feb. on Polyvinyl Records. You can buy it here.

Mike’s year-end post is nearly here… just waiting on the latest ship­ment of mp3s to hit our loading dock and it’ll be up.
