With dance moves like a slightly more awkward Elvis Costello, Wendin’s video is the definition of a minimalist approach. While we don’t want to ruin the whole plot of the video, expect some wanton property damage and evil doppelgangers. As for the song, here’s where Moneybrother begins to shine; the song is every bit the danceable rock of an Interpol or Strokes, but with more of a fusion of ’60s soul, ’70s rock, and a bit of some ’80s New Wave and punk thrown in for good measure. It’s a blend that’s tasty without ever losing any depth.
Moneybrother’s U.S. debut, Real Control, is out today. Catch Wendin on tour with Against Me! to boot.
