Ryan Adams unveiled his new music video for the lead single from his forthcoming self-titled record, “Gimme Something Good.” The Michael Reich-directed black-and-white video stars Adams along with the Mistress of the Dark, Elvira, who (as her Twitter says) gives Mr. Adams unpleasant dreams. All in all, it is just a wonderfully dark Ryan Adams video.

Watch the video below and check out Adams covering the Grateful Dead’s “Wharf Rat” for some kids.
