"When You Call", off Excepter's Presidence LP from February, is a dubbed-out, subwoofer-friendly master mix of a number of live performances of that same song, arranged by bandmember Nathan Corbin, aka Zebrablood. This new video, also by Corbin, sets its snail-slow bass jaunt and molasses-stuck note-bends to images of the bandmates themselves-- no longer walking in the sand, as we saw in last year's Black Beach DVD, but stalking the treeless avenues and empty hipster bars of industrial Bushwick. Chiaroscuro flashes of smartly dressed humanity relieve us with the impression that we're not the only people alive in this post-apocalyptic terrain-- the chilling part is trying to figure out whether there's anybody home behind these shallow grimaces, dark sunglasses, and perfectly timed needle drops. (via Visitation Rites)

Presidence LP is available via Paw Tracks, and the band's new Late EP is out now on Woodsist. A new cassette release, Maze of Death, is slated for Black Friday (November 26) via Dog Daze Tapes
