Today in music videos: Lower Dens go hunting for bees, aliens, and general creepiness in "Propagation"

"Rattling and robotic, it’s about as inorganic as organic music gets," our own Jason Heller writes about Nootropics, the new Lower Dens album that just came out today. There's certainly something not quite human about the video for "Propagation," with its images of glowing people standing in the middle of a forest with bee costumes on. The video, directed by Sebastian Mlynarski, is full of similarly striking images. Check out the video, and the band's latest tour dates, below. [via Pitchfork]
