Eric Andre Lends His Deranged Eye to Thundercat’s “Tron Song”
Exploding heads, police brutality, guns in litter-boxes. Eric Andre and Thundercat face off.
September 12, 2014
We've watched Eric Andre's twisted video for Thundercat's "Tron Song" at least ten times. It's classic 3AM Adult Swim fodder: the Brainfeeder singer/bassist shoots himself in the dick, gets pelted by a cop in a back alley, and drinks cod liver oil, all in the name of his lovable pet cat Tron. The fairly fucked visuals (giving us solid Reh Dogg vibes) actually somehow gel against Thundercat's pensive psych-funk, with sunrise harmonies and a scraggly falsetto that's worthy of repeat on its own. Thundercat is featured on Flying Lotus' upcoming LP You're Dead, and don't miss his 2013 essential Apocalypse.
