Can you help me identify this stop motion music video?

garlicmetal · 02-04-2012, 03:27 AM

Thanks for taking interest in my thread. I am trying to figure out the name of this song and the band so I can watch the video. Alas, i can't really recall any lyrics other than humming the basic melody, but the video is like none other so I hope somewhere he can identify it for me

the music video is basically all clay stop animation. It's very dark and gritty and as I recall it centered around following this little ugly clay dude around as he seemingly performed chores in this creepy world. I remember very clearly a scene where he removes some metal from a pipe and you see some type of large worm or meaty looking thinkg moving through the pipe. The little ugly clay guy kind of pets the worm as it moves through the pipe and kid of shows it some weird affection.

If this strikes a bell with anyone and you know the song name I would be so grateful to you for finding it!

thank you

Could it be Keane's bedshaped?

Specifying a style or time frame would help. Though that description very much sounds like one of Tool's first videos to me, Sober in particular.

The pipe scene happens near the end close to the 4:40 mark. From what I understand all the stop motion work was done by their guitarist as well.
