Oh Michel Gondry, we’re so sorry. You have no longer cornered the market on stop-motion videos using toys. Montreal band Miracle Fortress (which is mostly just multi-instrumentalist Graham Van Pelt from Think About Life) made a dazzling day-in-the-life video for Have You Seen In Your Dreams off of Five Roses, using only four magnetic sketch pads. The song is reminiscent of some other psychadelia-pop revivalists (like Rogue Wave). The band is currently on the European leg of their tour with fellow quebecois Patrick Watson, but hopefully they’ll be swinging through North American this summer.
