(Gibson) Arcade Fire have re-teamed with director Spike Jonze (Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, Where the Wild Things Are), this time for a music video that brings their single "The Suburbs," available December 20, eerily to life. The band previously worked with Jonze when he commissioned a new version of their song "Wake Up" for his 2009 film Where the Wild Things Are.Last spring Jonze told MTV that he wanted "The Suburbs" video to play out like a short film. Captured in the suburbs of Austin, Texas, the music video features a group of bored teenagers riding bikes, shooting off BB guns, getting into trouble and eventually getting in over their heads. "It was great just hanging out with these 15-year-olds for a week and writing down all the funny things they said," singer Win Butler told Pitchfork.com. "It was cool to revert to being a 15-year-old for a little while." - more on this story
