Music videos are at a weird point in their evolution right now. Thanks to the internet, we can watch basically any video ever made whenever we want. But now that MTV has become an entire network devoted to dating shows from third-tier celebrities, those videos never quite reach TV audiences, at least not in the numbers they once did. And so videos have become weirdly fleeting and ephemeral, quick little things to watch at our desks when we're on our lunch breaks. Well, Department of Eagles aim to change that. When the hushed psych-pop duo debut their video for "No One Does It Like You" from their album In Ear Park, they'll do it in grand fashion at New York's Museum of Modern Art.The video premiere goes down on March 24 as part of MOMA's PopRally event. After the video screens, MOMA assistant curator Sarah Suzuki will moderate a Q&A with the band and the video's two directors: visual artist Marcel Dzama and Patrick Daughters, the guy responsible for iconic clips like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' "Maps" and Feist's "1234". (Dzama also designed costumes and sets for the video.) And following the Q&A, Department of Eagles will perform. Department of Eagles don't have a whole lot else planned, since the looming release of Veckatimest means D.O.E.'s Daniel Rossen will be pretty busy with his other band, Grizzly Bear. But the duo do have some SXSW shows planned, including The 2009 Pitchfork/Windish Austin Bash.The Beggars Group blog posted a little preview of the video, featuring some intriguing photos from the video shoot. Ooh, looks spooky!read more
