White Denim debuts new video for “I Start to Run”
Along with the United States release of their sophomore album “Fits,” Austin’s spastic Lou Barlow-approved fuzz rock kings and certified international sensations White Denim have just debuted the stateside video for lead single “I Start To Run” on mtvU. Eagle-eyed viewers may notice that the video was shot at the (re-dressed) Austin City Limits studio. White Denim had an open call for extras for the shoot just last month.
Although the video, with its freakish costumes and faux-QVC shopping network interludes, is a charmer, it doesn’t quite reach the zany heights of the United Kingdom video for “I Start To Run.” That video, released back in June when “Fits” came out in the U.K., took a rather more literal approach, with bassist Steve Terebecki madly scrambling and a visual style recalling Terry Gilliam’s cult film “Time Bandits.” Peep the new video below, followed by June’s version right underneath, and if you feel so compelled drop into the comments and let us know which you prefer.
