[watch] The Antlers//Drift Dive

“Considering all that’s just happened in NYC, today is a strange day to debut our new video, but it feels oddly appropriate too.  James Case-Leal created this beautiful piece to accompany ‘Drift Dive’. We hope it provides you with some comfort in the face of all this devastation. We love you, New York.” [via facebook and pitchfork].

The Antlers latest EP, Undersea, is available now on ANTI-.
