Fond of Rudy, “The Line”

Post Author: Meredith Schneider

Brighton-based Fond of Rudy is taking over the airwaves with their infinitely catchy indie pop tracks.

The video starts out with sugary sweet instrumentals, cascading into a rich guitar riff with percussion to complement. The scene is reminiscent of that backpacking trip you took in Wyoming earlier this summer, with shots of natural waters, trees, and the guys walking to a fire pit set next to a a picnic table. It’s everything an outdoor adventurer wants in life, and Fond of Rudy is gladly providing.

Then the guys sing across the fire to each other, which kind of seems like a super cheesy way to roll with it. (Is that a hallucination of a beautiful woman, or is she actually there?) The thing is, we’re really digging the cheesy. We love that they shake their heads at each other, and that there are nods to fun, slapstick humor reminiscent of The Three Stooges. Then there are slow motion montages, and a flurry of emotions is introduced that we’re not sure we were exactly ready for.

One thing’s for sure: If he could get that girl out of his head, he could probably enjoy his mountain man guys’ day a little bit more.

But we’ll just enjoy it for him.
