Earlier this year, lo-fi indie rocker and stoner icon Mac DeMarco put out his third full-length studio album, Salad Days. It features songs that manage to be even hazier, slower, and more lo-fi than his last release, 2. One of the album’s hits is “Chamber of Reflection,” and now in its new music video, it’s slowed down even more when put against the backdrop of Homer Simpson on drugs.
Okay, so it’s not quite the animated cartoon and we don’t know for sure that drugs are involved. What the “Chambers of Reflection” music video does see, however, is DeMarco’s girlfriend Kiera McNally donning a giant Homer Simpson mask while dancing with a fire hydrant, riding the metro, and daydreaming around New York City — all through the lens of an old fisheye camera and some psychedelic editing. To say the least, it’s trippier than the song itself. Sometimes you just have to go along with someone else’s thoughts; as he writes on the YouTube page, “Blessed be you, child” — because what else is there to say?
