Someone said somewhere it was kinda surf arty. They shoulda run with that. Avocado is a pretty cool irreverent name

Now I know for a fact, you're excited, despite yourself.
At the moment (and I stress "at the moment"), I'm just feeling smug that this video looks like it might be fairly cool and some pretty cynical bastards have said so. I'm having an "I told you so" moment and I plan to enjoy it until 9 am PST.

Yeah. Maybe that was me, I said something along the lines of the avocado being tropical and that goes with the zombie theme and also stuff like Severed Hand. All that anti-war political stuff got in the way of that theme though.

The songs would have needed way more drugs for this to work.

Looks more like Monty Pythonesque crowds of old women moving across a background screen while a vaguely homoerotic 70's superhero shazams his super powers into go time.

It's actually the greatest goddamn half second this band has delivered in many years.

Not quite so with the audio included.

yup, this could be a good video if the band playing doesn't mess it up.

On the other hand, it didn't ruin Jeremy
