The new Tortoise album, Beacons Of Ancestorship, is awesome, but like so many of their albums I listened to it for a week and haven’t listened again since. Nevertheless, they are amazing musicians (see them live!) and this new video for “Prepare Your Coffin”, directed by Andrew Paynter and JUICE, is beautifully shot. I won’t over-analyze it, just watch:

Beacons Of Ancestorship is out June 23 on Thrill Jockey. Visit their site to stream it and see tour dates.
