Crazy NSFW clown time!

I know it's Saturday, but seriously, if you're at work and the boss is around, you probably want to save this video for home viewing. Nudity? Yes. People spitting on each other? Yes. A dude with his hair on fire? Yes. David Lynch with a mohawk? Yes, and yay!

"Crazy Clown Time" comes from David Lynch's 2011 debut studio album of the same name--yep, he's a musician, too! The album conveys much of the same weirdness found in his films, like surreal wordscapes, noisy industrial backdrops, and haunting melodies. Lynch provides most of the vocals, along with Karen O from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. He calls his music "modern blues." Just last year he released his second album, The Big Dream, which builds on the same sounds and themes explored in Crazy Clown Time, both of which have been critically well-received.

In today's song, Lynch sings in a little boy voice about a party gone really, really wild. The video bring that vision to life in no uncertain terms and is the nightmare fuel you'd expect from one of Lynch's films. Susie ripped her shirt off completely! Danny poured beer all over Sally! We all ran around the backyard! It was crazy clown time... it was real fun.
