Mew - why are you looking grave, 2005

"To end out the week, we ask Mew frontman Jonas Bjerre some questions about endings and death. The Danish band formed way back in 1995, releasing their debut album, A Triumph for Man two years later in 1997. But it was 2003’s Frengers that first garnered them international attention, with 2005’s And the Glass Handed Kites further growing their audience outside of Denmark thanks to songs such as “Special” and “Why Are You Looking Grave?” (which featured the guest vocals of Dinosaur Jr.‘s J Mascis)."
