Dirty Beaches: "Lone Runner"

Second beach-related video of the day, but not really.  The only thing sunny or beach-worthy about "Lone Runner" is the Wall of Sound girl group handclaps underpinning the otherwise grim, Nick Cave smothered drone of the Dirty Beaches palette.  Nick Cave is a bit of a stretch as a comparison, but one edge I'll give to Cave is that the man usually has good videos.  I think they were going for harrowing here but the only thing troubling to my own sense of ease is the paroxysms of boredom I get watching this dullardry.  Still, I'll post a bad video for a good song, I just won't post a good video for a bad song.
