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

Dan Rossen Month continues with another cut from the Department Of Eagles DUMBO session that brought us the unreleased "1997," featuring Dan and Fred alone in a Brooklyn room with a view. This live "Herring Bone" is stripped of In Ear Park's arrangements and accouterments, presented here in its piano-man core, unadorned but for a few touches of...
A great record that Daniel Rossen has called "too personal" for main band Grizzly Bear gets even more personal in this session recorded live at the Atlantic Sound Studio in Brooklyn's DUMBO area. "Those nights you wandered online/ You won't get to relive them," Rossen sings on "Herring Bone", a tune from In Ear Park, his Best New Music-crowned l...
Not like live television debut, I mean like they had never before played as a band in public until last night, when they did so before a nationally televised audience. No pressure, guys. And yes that came pretty fast, but they had Bookeaters to plug, and chances are Rossen made a fan of Conan's music booker last time he was on. Dan and Fred perf...
