Rabbits Posts "So Fake It's Real" Music Video

Following the recent Lamb Unlimited release of the third Rabbits LP "Untoward," the horde now infects the media with an official video for the track "So Fake It's Real."

Following in the same "digital can suck it" ethos of the LP -- recorded live to tape, only overdubbing vocals and solos -- the "So Fake It's Real" video was constructed by Whitey McConnaughy (Red Fang, OFF!, ZZ Top), who took DIY to new levels of dementia to create one of the most caustic handmade videos to be found.

"I've wanted to do a video like this for some time and was looking for the right band/song and Rabbits fit the bill all the way around. I had gotten bored with the clean perfect look of all the HD videos out there and wanted to shoot something that had a lot of texture, grit and personality to it and HD has none of that," McConnaughy states in a sequential breakdown of the "So Fake It's Real" creation process.

The video utilizies fully analog equipment and unorthodox manufacturing methods, infusing chemicals, lasers, skateboards, stomping techniques, pillow cases, coffee filters, a Fisher Price Pixel Vision camera and more to visually capture Rabbits in the filthiest possible state. He continues, "There is absolutely no digital effects used in the making of the video. Everything is analog, with equipment made well before 1985. The only thing modern was the editing system that I used but it was just simple cuts, I didn't do any real color correction because it is what it is. It's not perfect, it's jagged, it's rough, it's messy; it's how life really is and that's why I like it."
