Custom For a band known for their peace-and-love hippie aura, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros have an awfully high body count in the first two segments of SALVO!, the band’s 12-part music video series. The videos thus far feature lead singer Alex Ebert (ex-Ima Robot), as the main character and devil’s offspring Edward, and follows him through his misfortunes in the desert. The band is a rotating collective, with 10 members listed on their Rough Trade Records bio. Rolling Stone declared the group an artist to watch in 2009, calling them a cross between Arcade Fire and the Mamas & the Papas. Their own biography perhaps summarizes their effect best: “Fans are known to be so overcome with emotion at their live shows that tears of euphoric joy are not uncommon.”

A truly amazing experience in Houston last night. Looking forward to their return. I was carried back to a peace love dove 60's era with their magnificent performance. They play from their souls and hearts. Euphoric!!!!!

FWIW, the video above doesn't seem to work, as it's a "private video".
