Mach I is best because there's no band footage. The band footage is dumb.

What about being tormented for seven years with three dicks? :P

We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

I think their promotional machine is really disorganized. They do a mini ARG to announce the album, and decide to release the single at the end of it. They also wanted to do a video for it, but it wasn't ready by the time they wanted to do the announcement, so instead of waiting a couple weeks, they figure, "fuck it," and decide to release some in progress versions of the video before all the footage is edited together.

I don’t see the point of three videos.

Still a great song, though. Bring on Superblood Wolfmoon.

What's the current over/under on the odds "dick" is used in at least one more song on the album?

see, the whole thing would have been much more stylish if they'd just admitted that that's what they were doing: "join us in the process of creating a video"; they could've invited audience feedback, but no, they had to fake the slick presentation of an underwhelming "reveal"

The thumbnail shows the band in action, therefore the big reveal is supposed to be LOOK AT THE BAND! They're playing again! WOW! ffs

High enough that all males should whip them out in unison at the start of each pearl jam concert.

lol this sequence of videos was such a joke

embarrassing this whole thing

they should have just stuck with Mach I and called it a day

this doest bode well for the rest of the album imo

it shows they are still capable of making obvious, needless, self-inflicted mistakes of judgement

and now what

another single with another 6 videos to fill the void of the next TWO MONTHS

is it customary to release a single 3 months before the album?

i don’t think people have the attention span for that these days

tired of this song already. it sounds more sterile every listen

WHAT BRAND IS THAT GILET?!?!?!?

They should! And despite this album not being self titled, it should be nicknamed "dicks" , as S/T was nicknamed avocado. Or at least this song should be.
