Devendra Banhart Music Video: Foolin

Devendra Banhart will always hold a special place in my heart. Whether it's his androgynous looks, his long locks, his quivering vocals, or just his whole hippie folk-freak appeal, Rejoicing in the Hands, will continue to be one of my all time favorite albums.

His latest album, What Will We Be, is his first album released on Warner Brothers and with a bigger and mainstream label, his sound did unfortunately change. It's not that I don't like the fact that "Baby" is still playing off of Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon's "Lover," but it is straying away from his original folk roots which echoed Vashti Bunyan.

However, with a new album and a new sound, comes new videos (with hot haircuts!). I suppose I should have mentioned this in the beginning of the post, but the video for "Foolin" is pretty much NSFW. It's not anything extremely gory or sexual, but just enough to make you feel embarrassed if your supervisor walks by your desk while you watch it.
