They say there’s a lot of value in first impressions, and Roco (née Bashly) isn’t one to waste an opportunity like that. Their debut single "e. silver" dropped last month, and the beginning of May saw the release of a colorfully twee video to accompany the colorfully twee song. The stop-and-start nature of the stop motion video, which looks like a set piece from Fantastic Mr. Fox, nicely compliments the minimal baroque pop of "e. silver."
It looks like we’ll be getting some more from Roco once Pidgin Tongue debuts on May 17, so now’s your last chance to be ahead of the curve on a band everybody should be talking about. If that’s not enough to convince you to give the video a watch, stick around after it’s done to see YouTube’s auto-play feature launch into some real out-there conspiracy videos about silver and the Illuminati, for whatever reason. -Austin Phy
