na, i didn't. haven't expected it to leave even on vimeo. but yes, it was a really nice watch.
^ Well that didn't last long! Pumisher, I don't suppose you managed to grab a copy of it did you?
For those who didn't see it, it really was very good. I mean that in the visual sense more than musically. About 130 films and tv shows edited together to create a 13 minute music video. Read more about it HERE.
They wanted to make a whole album and film out of it but had funding setbacks for it and this is just a what could've been. They still want to work on it though. I've recently listened to another local radio interview and they said they have more music that didn't make the album because it just didn't transition/fit well with the whole album but they want to release it later in some form.
Here's the interview with a little more on the film and other stuff:

In another article they revealed they were working with a south korean illustrator though. So either its a collaboration or the above was just a fan made video which I thought was in the first place. extract from other article:
They worked on an ambitious but ultimately doomed animation-and-music project for two years. The scale of it was massive. It was to come out under The Avalanches' name as a feature-length animated movie made with hand-drawn cells, done by an illustrator in South Korea, and with Avalanches' music.
"It was inspired by Yellow Submarine," says Chater, "and 1960s Japanese pop-art. Like a cartoon for grown-ups. It was going to be this big, beautiful hand-crafted thing, a really fun psychedelic, hip-hop cartoon." But it was funded privately, and very expensive, and the money fell through at the last hurdle.

I like the whole album now, frankie sinatra even now how it fits in the album. The noisy eater reminds me of the remix of Airs Sexy boy:
(I'm sure theres maybe a few other tracks that use eating out there somewhere though)
The underwater part going into Wozard of IZ into Sunshine was a beautiful climatic moment you'd find in SILY too.
...'cause I don't like whats going on in the world. I'm scared of that...
