Video of the Day: The Fiery Furnaces, “Duplexes of the Dead”


The Fiery Furnaces almost always fight against pure accessibility, and on some collections such as the concept disc Rehearsing My Choir, an understandably heartfelt song cycle about the Friedbergers’ grandmother, it simply went over the brink and into the abyss. Last year’s Widow City, which featured “Duplexes of the Dead,” was much more to my liking, if only because it married the duo’s love of storytelling with a (nearly) straightforward rock song structure. The Fiery Furnaces release their next disc, Remember, on Aug. 19.
