There are lots of things you can do with a police siren. The obvious one being you can affix it to the roof of your car and impersonate a police officer. We're pretty sure that's a federal crime though. But still, don't let that stand in the way of pulling people over and giving them a good, throughout "pat down" on the hood of your Prius. OK, now you are violating all kinds of laws. You're better off doing what Pink Mountaintops did: Take your police siren (hey, where did you get that thing anyway?) and take it down with your basement and let it be the centerpiece for your music video. The Vancouver band plugged it in, turned on an 80s VHS camera (and not a very good one from the looks of it), played their song, "Ambulance City," and let the hypnotic circling red light take them to weird places. Weird places include seeing Stephen McBean of Black Mountain in a nurse's outfit.Check out the video for the "Ambulance City" from the band's album Get Back (out on April 29) above.
