Grizzly Bear, 'While You Wait for the Others' -- Video Premiere

The new video for Grizzly Bear's 'While You Wait for the Others,' directed by Sean Pecknold, isn't anything like the one that accompanied 'Two Weeks' earlier this year, except perhaps that both videos share a penchant for oddity. That one was weird, but this one is really weird. All we know is that it has something to do with clocks, pets, hobbies, books, stuffed animals, sports equipment, fencing and ... waiting.

Still, the theme seems to be in line with the song title. But who are we waiting for? It better not be musician Michael McDonald because, while he does make a guest appearance on an alternate version of this track, this one comes straight from the album. Maybe he'll show up anyway? And who's under those fencing masks? "While you wait for the answer" (lyrics, folks) you might as well watch the video, directed by Sean Pecknold.

Lame :/ The video dosen't even match with the song in any way. It could belong to any song really.
