Uncut - Darkhorse video
From Pitchfork: Operator, get me the President of the World! This is an emergency: Armies of beloved Saturday-morning-cartoon marketing icons are training to mount a bloody and unending war against mankind. It's all right here in the stop-animated video for Uncut's "Darkhorse", from sophomore album Modern Currencies (headed for U.S. stores July 17 on Paper Bag after a release last year in the band's native Canada). "Let's just kill all the living," guitarist Ian Worang shouts in the song, a high-energy rocker in the vein of fellow Toronto band Tokyo Police Club, whom Uncut drummer Jon Drew has produced. On the Kris Lefcoe-directed clip, the barely concealed likes of Ronald McDonald, Tony the Tiger, and the Care Bears appear to have taken Worang's advice. Some cute anarchists try to party in a forest that's about to become an Enormart, but meanwhile your corporate-sponsored childhood memories are taking firing practice, running obstacle courses, and of course hacking up the damn hippies with chainsaws. 'Cause you fucking know, Ronald don't play that.
