Watch: Ben Fold’s “Hiroshima”

Watch: Ben Fold’s “Hiroshima”

We’re pretty big fans of Ben Folds, but even more importantly, we’re big fans of action figures. That might be a reason we really dig the new music video from the “The Piano Man: Part Deux” himself. Due out September 30, 2008, Way to Normal will be Folds’ third solo effort, with “Hiroshima” set as the first single. Stop motion usually scares me (Puppet Master, anyone?), but these action figures are rocking out.

Oh, it doesn’t hurt that the song is pretty good, too.
