I agree the video for “Beyond Here Lies Nothing” is disturbing, but the HBO promo is very cool. Who is this video intended to impress? (Probably bloggers, so I’m going along with it)

The home page, aside from featuring a blow up of one of David Gahr‘s final Dylan portraits (from the last album btw), states that the clip is presented by IFC and was directed by Nash Edgerton. While the production values are impressive, the concept is terrible and I would guess most people didn’t watch the whole clip.

The commercial for “True Blood” on HBO featuring the song, contrarily, is much better. I have included that one after the jump as well as the original.

Let me know if you make it through “Beyond Here Lies Nothing” after the jump.

And a Happy 68th Birthday to Bob Dylan. His recent Rolling Stone and online interviews (“I’m not a playwright. The people in my songs are all me,” he told Bill Flanagan) are fascinating and of course we look forward to seeing him with Willie Nelson this summer.
