Wondrous Bughouse, the sophomore LP from Trevor Powers (aka Youth Lagoon), is a portal to the Idaho musician's metaphysical trepidation. Director Stephen McNally beguiles with his ocular interpretation of the dysphoric reverie of Youth Lagoon in the video for "Raspberry Cane", premiered on Noisey today. The animated world where the physical and the spiritual entwine to materialize in fantastic visuals, gives us a glimpse into Powers' fragile, yet dearly beautiful inner universe.
