We here at D&T love the Black Lips as much as the next person with skinny jeans and an asymmetrical haircut. They’re raucous, always put on a good show, and judging from their alleged tour stories they absolutely know how to have a good time. Their new video for “Noc-A-Homa” is a somewhat charming ode to a forgotten in-stadium baseball mascot, Chief Noc-A-Homa (geddit? Knock a homer?).
The Black Lips video comes to us courtesy of fancy-sunglasses-company Ray Ban in conjunction with their ‘Never Hide’ music series.
