DieAlps! share new video for "I Can See It Now"

"'I Can See it Now' is sort of an ode to society’s outcasts, and the gradual realization that perhaps there is a reasonable explanation for the way this 'weirdo' chooses to live," says Frank Calcaterra of the new DieAlps! video and single. Watch a homeless astronaut search for meaning in life in this "wistful visual odyssey with a universal message," as put by The Big Takeover who premiered the video today.
