Team Spirit Take a Surreal Cartoon Journey in ‘Teenage Love’ – Premiere
Brooklyn-based rockers Team Spirit have unveiled the second-to-last installment of their animated music video series for their self-titled debut EP. “Teenage Love,” a fast-paced, surf-influenced summer jam, picks up right where the previous episode, “Fuck the Beach,” left off: the band has been shot into space and saved by extraterrestrials that turn out to be violent and strange. From there, Team Spirit are forced to make a giant meatball monster and then are saved by Satan’s fiancée.

“The final installment will show us who she is!” frontman Ayad Al Adhamy, formerly of Passion Pit, promises Rolling Stone. “And will Team Spirit have ultimate salvation?!”
Team Spirit joined up with Swedish animators Hannes and Johannes to create this series of surreal, Adult Swim-esque videos. They certainly add a dark, unexpected dimension to the band’s poppy garage tunes.
