[video] The Pains of Being Pure at Heart :: “Everything With You”

 

 

As i’m sure all of you know by now, I am a major supporter of The Pains of Being Pure at Heart.  Their debut LP doesn’t drop until early February of next year, but expect the posts to continue to pour in on this site until the name POBPAH is on the tip of everyone’s tongue that I come in contact with.

Here’s a new video for - in my opinion - the best single of 2008, “Everything With You.”  It’s shot entirely on Super 8 film, and showcases the always cute Peggy Wang.  Apparently, they’re also shooting a video in a library in Cambridge for their next single “Young Adult Friction,” which makes sense as the song is about sex in a library.

The band is currently on tour in the UK with The Wedding Present, and recently announced a mini-tour next year in support of the new album.
