Tweedy and Ron Swanson are teaming up for a video and all is right with the world. The official video for “Low Key,” a cut from Tweedy’s debut album Sukierae, is now available, marking the second time the Wilco frontman and the popular NBC comedy have been associated. The first came back in April when Tweedy reunited popular Pawnee, Indiana band Land Ho! for the Unity Concert.

The “Low Key” video, directed by Nick Offerman, offers commentary on the state of the declining music industry as the Tweedy and his son Spencer go door-to-door in an attempt to supplement the underfunded marketing efforts of their record label. Guest appearances include Conan O’Brien, Andy Richter, Mavis Staples, Chance the Rapper, Wilco drummer Glenn Kotche, producer Steve Albini and Jeff’s son, Sam Tweedy and many more.

The video ends the way you’d expect–monkeys run the world. So, Wahlberg was onto something with those Planet of the Apes movies. Watch it below.
