Houston Press debuts new Easter Island video

Easter Island have been rolling out excellently shot and directed videos created by lead singer Ethan Payne leading up to the release of their new album, Take All The Time You Think You Need.

Enjoy the moving clip below, check out the premiere at Houston Press and mark your calendar for the December 11 album release date.

Ryan Monahan, featured in the new video below which premiered at Beats Per Minute, treks on his motorbike from his place of residence in Denver to White Sands National Park. Take All The Time You Think You Need is out December 11.
