After putting out their sixth studio album, The King Is Dead, back in January, Portland-based indie rock band The Decemberists have finally released a full music video to accompany one of the LP’s standout tracks. The visual for “This Is Why We Fight” harnesses adolescent imagination and creativity in a very cinematic, almost Where the Wild Things Are type of way, except an elaborate game of capture the flag ends up being the focal point of this plot. Check out the video above and head over to iTunes if you’re interested in grabbing the album.
