Tone Tank- King of Surf Guitar Rap (official video) from Tone Tank on Vimeo.

Pushing the limits of DIY once again, Tone Tank and director / crazy friend Paul Korzan spent weeks creating the paper Mache set pieces for this video, which was shot almost entirely in Tone’s cramped, dungeonous basement in Brooklyn. “It started off with me deciding to make a full-sized, paper Mache, red ’68 Cadillac, and it just kept going” says Tone.   When asked to describe the aesthetic of the video, the rapper / clothing designer / toy-maker said it was “Kind of like ‘Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas’ meets ‘Pee Wee’s Playhouse’, with a rapping sea creature driving a Cadillac with dinosaurs, luchadores, and debaucherous women.” Indeed.
