The band featured below is from Alaska and they are known as Portugal. The Man.
The music video featured is to their song titled The Dead Dog which was track #1 on the the bands 5th studio album titled American Ghetto, originally released in March 2010.
There were no dogs and no death in this presentation, but there is gangsterism, thievery, dancing, money and breaking & entering. Those depictions in the video were done by actors, not role models. Do not try to do this in real life, except for maybe the dancing part.
