Shepard Fairey (Obey) just directed a music video for Death Cab for Cutie.
The video features lyrics from Death Cab's 'Home Is a Fire' song. These lyrics were printed and actually pasted around town.
The video just released a couple of days ago, which is cool, but what is even cooler is that MELROSEandFAIRFAX covered some of these video pieces on the streets. It was without context at the time, but now that we know that these pieces were for the video, it puts it in a different light. And it is cool to think that not even a video gets made on the streets of LA without M&F capturing some of it.
The street pieces from the video we posted can be seen HERE and HERE.
Also, you can watch the video on YouTube and check out Obey's site for his description of the project. In his words "I would say that a street art call to action is “if you don’t like your home… reshape it”."
