Texas rockers Black Books debut their new music video, Favourite Place. Chris Thockler from Bombay Bicycle Club directs.

Racking up comparisons to Grandaddy and Band of Horses, Black Books are the latest act to emerge from the music breeding ground of Austin, Texas. They sound a bit like Arcade Fire, if Arcade Fire took a detour into the Deep South and then emerged from a psychedelic trip in the Mojave Desert. Check out their heady atmospheric mix of dreamy, visionary pop and epic rock with the premiere of Favourite Place, which blends your typical lyric video with a mesmerizing take on stop-motion action.

Black Books’ Aquarena EP is out on 11 February. blackbooksmusic.com
