Video of the Day: Incidental Jaw Action

Today's clip is promoting a new album from a popular Japanese band aptly called Tokyo Incidents.

Adblock

I particularly like this commercial for it varied from other music promotional ads, which normally just show 15 to 30 seconds of artists' music videos and call it a day. This ad manipulated the new album cover and transposed a nutcracker jaw on to the lead singer.

The quirkiness also fits in well with the band's image as a pop/rock/ska/jazz band famous for their alternative performances. And really, that jaw itself is enough to warrant a post all to itself.

For those interested, here's a cover this band did of a 1976 Ned Doheny song, "Get It Up For Love."



They're brilliant.
