Of Monsters and Men Release Animated Short Film

(2b) Icelandic stars Of Monsters and Men unveil a beautifully crafted animated short film for tracks 'The Block' and 'Mouse Parade.' The tracks are taken from their stunning new album All Is Love and Pain in the Mouse Parade, a record steeped in warmth and quiet emotional depth. That atmosphere is vividly brought to life through delicate stop-motion storytelling, masterfully directed by animation director Honor Price.

The film is a tender, surreal journey through miniature sets and hand-made puppets, where humor and vulnerability sit side-by-side. The stunning visuals explore connection and the strange rituals of everyday life, with small characters navigating big feelings inside a playful and fragile world. The result is a short film that feels less like a music video and more like a pocket-sized poem: intimate, offbeat, and human.

The film arrives as a companion piece to OMAM's fourth studio album All Is Love and Pain in the Mouse Parade, a record that envelops you in hygge - a gentle, comforting warmth that lingers long after the music ends. Self-produced by the band, with nuanced touches from Josh Kaufman (The National, Bob Weir, Bonny Light Horseman) and longtime collaborator Bjarni Por Jensson, the album pulses with the effortless chemistry of old friends creating together.
