Atlanta garage rockers The Black Lips are introducing their 200 Million Thousand album with "Starting Over," and they want their fans to make a video for it.
"Starting Over" can be downloaded here, and fans can enter the video contest on the Vimeo website. The Black Lips hope to receive 200 million thousand entries, so you all better get on it so they're not disappointed. You can submit your clip until Feb. 15.
The winner's video will be posted on the Vimeo home page and they'll receive an autographed copy of 200 Million Thousand, a seven-inch vinyl version of album cut "Short Fuse" and assorted Black Lips merchandise. The band will decide the ultimate victor from the five entries that receive the most votes on the website.
There are four videos posted now, which means that there are only 199,999,999,996 more to go before the goal is reached.
200 Million Thousand will be released by Vice Records on Feb. 24 and will be supported by these Black Lips live dates:
