If you’d like to have some interesting dreams this evening, consider this curious and rather psychedelic new video from Toronto-based Grounders<\/a><\/strong> for their song “Secret Friend.” What begins with a pleasant dip in a pool located in outer space morphs into an important telephone call in a hallway full of doors, a marimba ensemble, a parade of bicycles led by a circus elephant, disappearing cheerleaders, a man without a head directing pedestrian traffic, a man with a growing and shrinking head in that mildly disturbing hallway full of doors (seriously, I’ve had dreams like that), which then dissolves into kissing couples and telemarketers, a baseball game and synchronized swimmers, people dancing and working out and walking all over the place. There’s also a presentation of many different repeating patterns and shapes, any of which would make very nice holiday wrapping paper. This is a track from their self-titled debut album, just released on Nevado Records<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n
