FLOOD Magazine just premiered the music video for Funeral Advantage's "Gardensong"! The song comes off this past fall's Body Is Dead LP, available on vinyl, tape, and digitally. On the video FLOOD says, "The idyllic suburban setting and the precociousness of the footage itself lightly recall parts of Richard Linklater’s Boyhood in their high regard for the genuine and sweet sense of possibility kids still believe themselves to have. It’s hard not to cheer for the guy when he makes the move from the driveway to the skate park."
Here are some words from Tyler on the video:
"I’ve wanted to make a skate video since I was 11 years old. My friends and I would spend all of our time filming and talking about what music would go with what parts, etc. We didn't have much planned beyond that, it was just going to happen, and that was that.
I don't normally look back fondly on my childhood, but even so, "Gardensong" turned out to be about appreciating the things you used to dream about when you were younger. We never made the skate video, but I like to think this is close to what it would have turned out as. I'm only about 13 years late finishing it."
