CALIFONE: ALL MY FRIENDS ARE FUNERAL SINGERS

735

Califone has released a new video for “Funeral Singers” off their most recent  album All My Friends Are Funeral Singers.  “Funeral Singers” is just one track from another uniquely cinematic album from the Chicago based sonic atmospheric rock band. The album  is actually a companion piece to lead singer Tim Rutili’s feature film of the same name, which I have only heard described as a Lynchian story about a lonely psychic woman, whose house spirits try to escape. The album is familiar territory for Califone, atmospheric alt-country, layered guitars, violin and banjo weaved by steel drums and tape loops. Its almost as if Califone keeps recording the same album, just improving on the last. They are performing a live, interactive soundtrack to the movie at most of their shows and the movie will be submitted to film festivals in 2010.You can check out the new video below or the movie trailer on their MySpace page.
