Wild Rumpus featuring Beardyman - Rock The Joint

It's only too often I come across a cartoon somewhere on the internet that is so brilliant, it makes me feel completely inadequate. Here's one I recently found on YouTube. Enjoy!

Promo video for the third single 'Rock The Joint' by Wild Rumpus (feat. Beardyman) on the Bitches Brew label, hand animated and directed by Tabitha O'Connell (www.tabbicat.com). Wild Rumpus is DJ/producer Colleen 'Cosmo' Murphy and Gary Lucas (Gods and Monsters, Captain Beefheart's Magic Band, Jeff Buckley). This track features the sensational Beardyman (www.myspace.com/beardyman) on vocals and sound FX, impersonating a deep south 'caller' of the square dances. Wild Rumpus is an explosion of Country-Blues-Dub-Tronica and Psychedelic-Surf-Cosmic-Disco, fusing genres in an unprecedented fashion.
