The Avett Brothers have released a new video for "Head Full of Doubt/Road Full of Promise," from the band's latest album I And Love And You. It's a spare but stunning work of art, featuring the animated paintings of Jason Ryan Mitcham. The video shows the rise, fall and inevitable decay of rampant urban development.

"Head Full Of Doubt/Road Full Of Promise" was written about the temporary nature of our buildings and our mentality," says Scott Avett. "Accepting the temporary state we may be in. (Artist) Jason (Ryan Mitcham) with his landscape paintings, and some that I'd seen that he'd animated, dealt with the temporary nature of the world around us."

Rather than make a bunch of different paintings for the animation, Mitcham gradually altered a single painting 26-hundred times. Ten alterations to the painting equaled one second of film.

Not how a city grows. Suburbs come way after a city is established.

murder in our childrens sacred spaces , the power of money and stupidity of human beings brought me here. As Americans we sorely need a new president and congressional leaders. I mean TOTALLY new blood . We deserve better,You and I and Our Children.     God I needed to hear this song this sad morning for the families in florida and for our nation.    Peace.......

The ruin of the Roman empire and we are repeating the same mistakes! History repeats itself, "and I'm frightened by those who don't see it"

Love this video. It reminds me of some of the more mature and dark(ish) cartoon movies that were out during the late 70s and well into the 90s. The only thing that I can point to off the top of my head to demonstrate what in referring to is movies like "Watership Down." The level of violence between rabbits just kinda freaked me out. Actually just sitting here trying to remember the movie caused my heart to beat a little harder.
