Howard Robot, a k a My Robot Friend, the Devo-inspired, one-man beats band that emerged from New York's electro-clash underground in 2001, has released a video for the title track of his new album, Robot High School due out next year.

Don't be fooled by its flashy, seemingly high-tech introduction! From the promotional site: "This is the A.V. Club. Today we will be showing the cinematic masterpiece: Robot High School. It was directed by the brilliant Xelor (Roel Wouters). It was shot in a single take in Amsterdam in October 2007. Despite how it may appear, no computer generated special effects were used to make the music video."
