Watch: POND Reveal Music Video For New Single "Zond"

Australian psychedelic-pop/rock band Pond have revealed the video for their new single "Zond".

The song is part of our current playlist and is taken from their upcoming new album 'Man It Feels Like Space Again', which will be out later this month (January 27). Pre-order your copy here

According to Mackay, a.k.a. Lord Fascinator, "Probably the hardest part of making this video was finding three elderly citizens who looked identical to what our computer projections told us Jay [Watson], Joe [Ryan] and Nick [Allbrook] will look like in the twilight of their lives. The Jeff Koons inspired inflatable toy band was brilliantly sculpted by our monster maker, Hayley Callander. The conjoined twin scene was a little trickier as we used stem cells from each band member to grow an extra torso and head which we later sewed on. Now, normally this takes about six - eight weeks but thanks to our friend and mentor Professor Vincenzi Vandella we were able to expedite this process in his Juggertron laboratory and have them available within mere hours. The Ben Montero artwork makes the whole thing, really - as well as the characters themselves who, to be honest, I could have just shot walking through the supermarket and it would have been just as weird and funny."
