As the song was inspired by Hills Like Elephants frontman Sean Davenport “venting about [his] day-to-day interactions,” the video was shot at his workplace, an unusually empty Lucha Libre Taco Shop in Mission Hills, which has seen lines halfway up the block since being featured on the Travel Channel’s Man v. Food in the summer of 2010.

“The idea was to make a keyboard album where the guitar is textural rather than the main drive of the song,” Davenport told The Reader in January.
Described by Davenport as a “Motown album with drum machines,” The Endless Charade features live drums by Matt Lynott of The White Buffalo and engineering by Christopher Hoffee at Chaos Recorders in Escondido.
