Philly funksters Prowler get animated in the trippy “Blood Boil” video

Philly funk band Prowler are back with a trippy video for their song “Blood Boil”, their newest single. Three years ago, the quartet did a Key Studios Session. The band is known to make off-kilter, darkly humorous videos, starting with “100 Rounds”,  “Skinny Bones” and “Hot Led”. A few months ago, they released the aptly titled “Creepy Crickets”.

Their newest video has a similar sound, a darker, more metallic edge of “Creepy Crickets” but its creepiness comes in an animated variety, courtesy of Daniel McCartney. In between seeing a lion getting beat up, the yeti getting smashed and a gorilla, the band members heads roll around in boiling blood. The video ends with a classic shot of a melting painting, reminiscent of Dali. In addition to the new song and video, the band released a short, slightly eerie ad with Jump Magazine and Red Bull Sound Select about their upcoming show. Watch “Blood Boil” below. Catch Prowler with Spunk and Mumblr Saturday July 19th at Undergound Arts.
