Yeasayer has teamed up with renowned artist and video director Andreas Nilsson (MGMT, Fever Ray, Moby, José González) to create a bizarre and poignant, humorous and heartfelt video for the bands newest single off Odd Blood, “Madder Red.”

Kristen Bell, the cutesy star of Forgetting Sarah Marshall and Veronica Mars, plays the lead, mourning over her beloved “pet,” which happens to be a throbbing, oozing sac of vestigial limbs with kind, blue eyes that you can’t help but love.

The quartet hits the road this October, playing across the country on its way to Austin City Limits.
