Jesse Malin has shared a video for "State of the Art" off his upcoming double album Sad and Beautiful World, which arrives 9/24 via Wicked Cool Records (pre-order). The video — directed by Xander Strohm and Dave Stekert, who were also behind Jesse's 2020 livestream series The Fine Art of Self Distancing — was filmed at an old mansion in Staten Island and it pays homage to Kubrick, Barry Lyndon, and Wes Anderson. It stars Jesse and his longtime band: Cat Popper, Derek Cruz, Rob Klores and Randy Schrager.

"It was fun to go somewhere I didn’t even think existed," Jesse said. "It’s the first time we all reunited outside of downtown New York. This is a statement about how isolated we’ve been and getting lost in all the distractions that can be filtered into our homes while we’re overselling ourselves," he added with a laugh. Watch below.

Jesse also revealed the exciting list of special guests for the hometown NYC show on his upcoming tour, which happens on October 23 at Brooklyn Made. The guests include H.R. (Bad Brains), Tommy Stinson (The Replacements), and the aforementioned Cat Popper. Hollis Brown is opening. Tickets are on sale now.
