Dinosaur Jr. announce their new album, There Near, out August 28th via Jagjaguwar and release the lead single/video, “Several Got Away.” In conjunction, they announce a fall North American Tour. Of the “Several Got Away” video, the director Guy Kozak says, “I wanted to do something a little tongue-in-cheek with a kind of ‘backyard movie’ feel that could fit in nicely with the existing canon of dinosaur jr. music videos. The first bit of inspiration came from a great Henry Darger painting of kids being terrorized by two giant floating hands of fire. Then I got thinking about the rapture and it came together from there. The guys were really game for it all and I was honored that they let me chase them around a big field with my camera like a psycho. We were on a tight schedule with the turnaround so I had to learn a lot of VFX stuff over the course of weekend, but I like the way the effects all turned out.”
