Yeasayer – “Madder Red”

The second single off of February’s release Odd Blood from Brooklyn-based band Yeasayer, “Madder Red” is — according to lyricist Amand Wilder — “about being a weak man, a gambler.” The video, on the other hand, seems to be about Kristen Bell caring for a sentient tumor. There is no indication as to whether or not it is a gambler. It is most definitely creepy, however. Also, oozy.

    Is the older woman Camilla Parker-Bowles? If not, she’s a dead ringer for her.
