Unknown Mortal Orchestra Track Puppet Creepers in 'Swim and Sleep (Like a Shark)'

By Rolling Stone | Rolling Stone – Mon, Mar 4, 2013 10:40 AM EST

Turns out puppets can be creepers too, and Unknown Mortal Orchestra's new video for II cut "Swim and Sleep (Like a Shark)" peeks in on marionettes who are doing a little peeking, and self-touching, of their own. A voyeuristic man gets caught peeping at a showering neighbor, but when he goes to a therapist, the doctor ignores the session as he's consumed with his own spy action. Later, the man tries to find solace in cooking shows, painting and bicycling, but to no avail. He finds himself all alone on his birthday with nothing but a nudie mag, but when he looks up, he finds someone else with a special interest in him.
