PREMIERE: Watch Creepoid Wander Through the Desert in the New Video for "Dried Out"

Get ready to feel lonely.

California’s Salton Sea is an oasis that cuts through the unforgiving Colorado Desert. With its briny blue waters, the sea actively fluctuates depending on factors like rainfall, and at times it has been nothing but a dry basin. It's an image that's sure to conjure up feelings of isolation and reflection. Directed by Mitchell Wojcik, the Philly band's new video for "Dried Out" details a free flowing, unfocused pilgrimage to the shores of the Salton Sea. The band faithfully follows a soothsayer played by Kurt Heasley of Lilys, and their blind dedication leads to their sacramental, gasoline-drenched demise.
