In our review of Harlem’s kickass sophomore album, Hippies, we said that “Gay Human Bones” was “nearly indecipherable in its vocals and meaning.” Well, this video certainly clears things up, if by “clears things up” we mean just confuses the hell out of us even more. We’re pretty sure the lyrics to the chorus are “My basketball team’s name is gay human bones, we win most of the games we play at my home?” What? Seriously, somebody help us out here. The video is pretty awesome, we guess, if you like John Waters and all. We feel like how Michael Coomers and Curtis O’Mara’s parents must feel about their band: We just nod and tell them it’s good and we support them while pretending to know what the hell they’re talking about. We’re very proud. But we also just tell our neighbors that the boys are off fighting in the war. Or in prison. Things are just easier that way. Anyway, Harlem had their release show for Hippies last Thursday, and the album is officially out tomorrow on Matador. Ole!
