Modest Mouse Will Debut Video Directed by Ledger

According to Q101.com, indie alternative band Modest Mouse, famous for hits such as "Float On" and "Dashboard" is set to finally release the video for "King Rat" more than a year after its completion. The reason for the delay? The video was directed by actor Heath Ledger before his sudden death in January 2008.

Although the band is keeping quiet on the content of the video itself, the lyrics seem to suggest a highly metaphorical social and personal commentary; a theme expressed throughout the band's discography. As one of Ledger's last works, the release of this video will undoubtedly be even more powerful and resonant. I'm looking forward to it.
