A month ago, Titus Andronicus released a video for “(I Blame) Society,” the first single off its upcoming sixth album An Obelisk, but it failed to make much of a splash and left the band on the ropes with its label—or at least that’s the premise established in Stacks, the bizarre new “prestige situation comedy” that Titus Andronicus has released to promote An Obelisk. The full-length “pilot episode” opens with frontman Patrick Stickles waking up in bed and answering a phone call from Merge Records about how harder he and the band will have to work to make up for the flop of the first single. After promising to do better and agreeing to an interview with some bullshit hipster music site, Stickles meets up with the other members of the band, plays one of the new songs, and then gets blackout drunk on Modelos.
