Dinosaur Jr have unveiled a video for Knocked Around.
The track is cut from their latest album, 'Give a Glimpse Of What Yer Not', which was released in August through Jagjaguwar.
The video was shot by the band's longtime friend O on their recent tour of the US. About it, he said:
“This song is one of my favorites from Give A Glimpse Of What Yer Not. It is everything amazing about Dinosaur Jr.: soft yet hard with J's awesome sense of vocal melody and a heavy dose of guitar schralping! I shot the entire video live while on the most recent US tour, and in slow-mo and black and white to capture the way I see tour life. This is a very hardworking band - Dinosaur Jr. had no idea I was doing this, so what you see is very honest and all live, shot at many venues across the US with different types of cameras. 'Knocked Around' is my take, and what I get from the song about being far away from family. The beginning of the video is my favorite section, with J's son Rory guitar teching for J onstage. Lou's sock dance/art is pretty rad, also. Thirty years after the start of this great band, they continue to release amazing albums - one right after the other.”
The clip arrives prior to the start of the trio's North American tour, which kicks off tomorrow in Montreal and runs until April 1, when they will finish things up in North Carolina.
