Those hoping for a sequel to The Sandlot that doesn't suck got some good news this week.
On Friday, Twin Peaks -- fresh off the release of new album Wild Onion -- premiered a Sandlot-themed video for "I Found a New Way" on Billboard.
The group recreated several scenes from the 1993 cult classic, and even took some liberties with a cigarettes-and-comics scene. By the way, the filmmaking process sounds like it was a blast.
"This was filmed out in Indiana in a bit of a ghost neighborhood, abandoned buildings and all," guitarist Clay Frankel told Billboard. "We invited a bunch of our friends to come out and have fun with us and that's what we did."
Check out the video here:
Wild Onion is the band's second album, and it's drawn mostly favorable reviews.
Wrote Pitchfork: "They seem to be offering two distinct versions of themselves: in one, they're good-times party rockers, and in the other they're heartbroken sweethearts."
New album in tow, the Chicago band will tour around the country this fall, including a Saturday night show in Cleveland.
