Check out the new Yeah Yeah Yeahs video for Heads Will Roll, directed by The Mighty Boosh actor Richard Ayoade.

While Karen O, Brian Chase and Nick Zinner play in a dark alley, a werewolf rocks some fucked up acrobatics and ’80s Michael Jackson moves. It’s all a greater metaphor for, um, humanity’s battle for spiritual survival in the technological age. Or something.

Whatever the hell it’s about, we’re definitely digging the ’80s cellophane princess look on Karen O.

The single for Heads Will Roll will be released on June 29, off their most recent album, It’s Blitz!

Ayoade’s most recent musical foray was directing the Arctic Monkeys’ 2008 DVD release Live At The Apollo. He’s currently working on adapting a screen play of the novel Submarine, which he plans to direct this summer.
