[Watch] Friends - "Mind Control" (Official Video)

Friends are readying the release of their debut album, Manifest!, on June 5th via Fat Possum. In preparation for that date they've let loose the brand new visual for their single, "Mind Control". A pretty creepy looking video featuring some kind of robot with a camera for a head. Weird. Check it out at the top and look out for more from the band in the coming months as they kick into promo mode for the LP's release.
