Boing Boing premiered the new video for the band Death Cab for Cutie titled ‘Home is a Fire’ which was directed by artist Shepard Fairey. Fairey used various lines from the song lyrics and pasted them up on different locations in Los Angeles to juxtapose the beauty of the lyrics with the somewhat grimy environment the words are placed in. It’s a really simple and effective video. You can read more on what Fairey and the band’s bassist (and collaborator with Fairey on the video) Nicolas Harmer have to say about making the video here and check out the video above.
