It all seems so simple and innocent: the sunny Malkmus-style intro riff, the bright multicolored lighting, the stuffed gorilla holding a baseball bat—but I know there’s something evil going on here. Just look at drummer Greg Saunier’s devilish eyes as he viciously hits his cymbal in a downward stabbing motion, or how the band seems to revere the stuffed gorilla that eventually takes down one of the weaker band members.
