SPIN welcomes the onward march of Caspian, the emotionally charged, highly cinematic band who made one of the the best post-rock albums of 2012. Their new clip for “Procellous” is five stormy minutes of Isis gone Kid A, full of comforting blues, trippy projections, dreamy slo-mo, and severe close-ups. It’s worth watching just to spot the fucking Death Star control panel these dudes use as a “pedal rig.”
