Picking Up the Slack for MTV: Parts & Labor


Who doesn't love a good stop animation music video? Brooklyn noise pop trio, Parts & Labor, provide this easy to love music video that uses the gimmicky film trick frequently without going overboard. The entire video of "Echo Chamber" is shot in some small apartment-like practice space with only some Christmas lights and few wood crates. As the band constructs the song piece by piece, the wood crates become walls of a shack surrounding the band & the Christmas lights blink with strobe like effect.  With it's colorful stop and go backdrop and tree house building craftsmanship, "Echo Chamber" is a true example that you don't need a multi-million dollar budget to make a great video.
