It shouldn't be a secret that I love animals. I write about pets from 8-5 and the majority of my freelance work revolves around that as well. That being said, I can't believe I missed out on the news that one of my favorite bands, Tokyo Police Club, were collaborating with the ASPCA to secure donations.

Here's the email as it it came through, with my comments noted in [ ]:

Donate To the ASPCA and Receive Tokyo Police Club's 'Wait Up (Boots of Danger)' Video + Exclusive Songs Including a Remix by RAC

Today [er, July 8] , Tokyo Police Club reveals their brand new video for 'Wait Up (Boots of Danger)' at Stereogum.com and TokyoPoliceClub.com.

The video features neighborhood dogs taking off and crashing a neighbor's yard for a pool party. The members of the band are all animal lovers [as if I needed more of a reason to like them?], and came up with the idea for the video, together with director Mike Juneau. The video was shot in the suburbs of Toronto. The dogs were trained and supervised by Jennifer Segal from "Dog Training That Works" http://www.dogtrainingthatworks.com/

Donate to the ASPCA via the widgets on Stereogum.com and TokyoPoliceClub.com to receive the video, an mp3 of the Dom remix of 'Wait Up (Boots of Danger)' as well as a never-before-heard RAC remix of the song (also currently streaming at Stereogum.com).

100% of each sale will be donated to the ASPCA®. Founded in 1866, the ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) is the first humane organization established in the Americas and serves as the nation's leading voice for animal welfare.

'Wait Up (Boots of Danger)' is featured on the recently released Champ, out now from Mom + Pop. Pick it up at TokyoPoliceClub.com, ITunes, Amazon, and EMusic.
