PREMIERE: Take Charge with Bear Hands' NSFW Video for "Boss"

The track is the latest track off of their third LP, 'You'll Pay for This'

Brooklyn-based band Bear Hands have made their rounds this year after releasing their third studio album, You'll Pay For This, in April. Today, we're getting weird with the premiere of their new video for single "Boss,"—directed by Ethan Berger and edited by Bear Hands guitarist Ted Feldman—a jaunt through a day in the life of stay-at-home Dad played by the ever-raven-maned Robert Rexx.

Feeling powerless, the man goes on a job hunt, only to find himself at a bar with friends taking shots and doing lines in the bathroom before…well, watch for yourself.

"It's always exciting to get an opportunity to make something with Ted," Berger says. "He's been a close friend and collaborator since college.  He's in the band but he also edited the video. I wrote this for Robert. Robert plays a stay at home dad — but not by choice. His home life makes him claustrophobic. He internalizes this until the end of the video — his family's there to clean up. The people who make him feel trapped are the ones to clean up his mess."
