Fresh from the release of new album 'Nanobots' (Lojinx), New Yorker pop legends They Might Be Giants announce UK dates for November, embarking upon the European leg of a world tour which has thus far seen them traverse the US, Australia and New Zealand.
They Might Be Giants - John Linnell and John Flansburgh - have also partnered with a team of directors to create music videos for 'Nanobots'.
'Icky', directed by David Cowles and Jeremy Galante, tells a stop motion tale of a cut-out animated hipster rampaging Godzilla-like through New York city.
Liam Lynch's directorial contribution sees the albums' eponymous micro-beasties replicating out of control and taking over the world. Check out the video here.
For 'Insect Hospital+' Japanese animator Hine Mizushima created a 'mash up' video using several of the shorter album tracks - 'Hive Mind', 'Decision Makers', 'Nouns', 'There', 'Insect Hospital' and 'Tick'.
