VIDEO: OK Go w/ Dogs - "White Knuckles"

Well, they've done it again. This time around, they had some friends help out. It may not be as crazy as some of OK Go's past videos, but it's still very entertaining. It calls to mind William Wegman's work with his dogs, if only because these dogs are well-trained and well-behaved -- and incidentally humorous. There's a moment when bassist Tim Nordwind gets a high-five from a dog and it's synced with a handclap in the song. I can't imagine trying to execute this video on time with the music and the cues. Watch it below.


FACT: 4 lbs of dog treats were used every day in the making of this video.
FACT: OK Go has joined with The ASPCA to donate money to a special OK Go fund: "The Rural Rescue Dog Fund." If you are interested, go here for more info: www.okgo.net/dogs/

BUY: "White Knuckles" is off of OK Go's latest album, Of the Blue Colour of the Sky, which is out now. Pick it up here digitally or here on CD.
