David Lynch has directed the video for “Shot in the Back of the Head,” a song by his new bestest friend Moby from his upcoming album Wait for Me. In a capitalization-challenged press release, Moby writes, “the creative impetus behind the record was hearing a david lynch speech at bafta, in the uk. david was talking about creativity, and to paraphrase, about how creativity in and of itself, and without market pressures, is fine and good… the first single(if you can call an instrumental with no vocals that we're giving away for free a 'single')is called 'shot in the back of the head', and i'm happy to announce that david lynch has done the video for it. i sent him the music and said, 'please do whatever you want'. so he sat down and drew some animation that is very dark and beautiful. david lynch is my favorite film director, and i'm really happy to have him as the first video director on 'wait for me'.”

Fans of Lynch’s Internet series Dumbland will immediately recognize the animation style, although the mood is decidedly darker. Hit the jump to take a look (and a listen):
