The new album, Dog Whistle, from NYHC instigators Show Me the Body features on its cover an aerial photo of a New York City rooftop bearing the massive painted silhouettes of three coffins; the group’s latest video, for the cut “Forks and Knives,” reveals the origins of the said image. The gritty VHS-style clip shows the secretive creation of the guerrilla artwork and follows the flight of a helicopter as it hovers over the skyline and views the finished piece. Meanwhile, SMTB frontman Julian Cashwan Pratt delivers the lyrics to the song in an emotive rant, backed by a diverse group of fans. Check out the video above. Show Me the Body hit the road in support of Dog Whistle tomorrow in Albany — see their upcoming itinerary below.
