Story telling + Musical Genius = Part II 'Kisses over Babylon'

So what did you think of Part I?

Here is the second instalment of this 12 part musical/music video from Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros (aka) Alexander Ebert. 

The story continues in the desert wasteland, ravaged by drought. Edward is arrested for the murder of his father and after reuniting with his brother they plan a prison break. 

Let me know what you think?  How do you like to tell stories?  What are your thoughts on making music videos from an album that tell a complete story as opposed to straight music videos of individual songs?
