Grizzly Bear released a new album, Painted Ruins, last month via RCA. It was our Album of the Week and the band is on the cover of our current print issue. Now they have shared a video for “Losing All Sense.” Cody Critcheloe directed the surreal clip, which stars actress Busy Philipps (Freaks and Geeks, Cougar Town, Vice Principals) and trans actress Aunt Freckle. Philipps shows up to a restaurant soaking wet and seemingly to a reality TV scene. Meanwhile Freckle is a lounge singer performing the song, with accompaniment from Grizzly Bear singer Ed Droste on piano. Things get weirder when Philipps climbs into her bowl of blue soup. Watch it below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.

Previously they have shared four tracks from the album, “Three Rings,” “Mourning Sound,” “Four Cypresses,” and “Neighbors” (the latter via a video), as well as a striking music video for “Mourning Sound.”

Read our review of Painted Ruins.

Grizzly Bear were formerly a New York band, but three members (Chris Bear, Ed Droste, and Chris Taylor) now live in Los Angeles, with Daniel Rossen living in Santa Fe, NM. The band spent two years writing and recording Painted Ruins. Taylor produced the album, which was recorded at Allaire Studios in upstate New York, and at several locations around Los Angeles, including Taylor’s own Terrible Studios. Painted Ruins is the follow-up to 2012’s Shields, and they have long been hinting at a new album, releasing various abstract teaser trailers for it.
