Maps & Atlases just released the music video for "Israeli Caves," the third single from last year's Perch Patchwork. What happens when a gang of "cowardly thieving redneck bears" steals the tricycle from a little boy? He trains hard, hunts down said bears, becomes a ninja, seeks revenge, and retrieves that bike. What else would he do? Watch the heartwarming, greatly entertaining piece below. It was filmed in the UK by Filmed by HandHeldCineClub.
Maps & Atlases - "Israeli Caves"
The video succeeds in working off the playful feel of the song's energetic folk. There's no denying that "Israeli Caves" goes down easy because of its pleasant, uplifting melody, but what really hooks you in is the almost frantic drumming. And while the drums might be rather fast-paced, they happen to end up as a perfect complement to the song's overall sense of ease.
Perch Patchwork is out now on Barsuk.
