Canadians Young Rival got a little buzz this past summer with songs like “Your Island,” but the cutesy adorable indie pop song (that my Mom happens to love) finally got a video! It’s cool. Like, really cool. It kind of reminds me Old Gregg, but that’s a good thing. I love remembering the Boat Times!!… Continue reading New Young Rival video: “Your Island”

Jack White’s new supergroup: The Dead Weather
Let me just give you the lineup: fronting the band is The Kills’ Allison Mosshart with Jack White on backup vox and drums (cool!). Guitar is the Queens Of The Stone Age’s Dean Fertita and on bass is Jack Lawrence from the Raconteurs. My jaw dropped. Really, it did (okay only a little but still). The… Continue reading Jack White’s new supergroup: The Dead Weather
Handsome Furs make REALLY messed up video for “I’m Confused”
OK. This one is a MUST watch until the end. No exceptions! That’s all I’m saying about it, let the suspense run wild. (To be fair, when I say “messed up,” I mean in a really cool crepy way). “I’m Confused” is off Handsome Furs’ latest album Face Control, which is out now on Sub Pop. … Continue reading Handsome Furs make REALLY messed up video for “I’m Confused”
Pawnshop Diamond makes sweetest music video of all time
A KR favorite, Pawnshop Diamond, just released a video for their song “Carleen.” The song is named after a director who directed the video and also made a documentary named after another one of the band’s songs. Wha? Very circular. Like Samsara (confused? Learn something today). Although it looks kind of like one of those… Continue reading Pawnshop Diamond makes sweetest music video of all time

Karaoke music videos are SO 2009

New N.A.S.A. video: “The People Tree”
Collaboration sensation, N.A.S.A., who just dropped their debut, The Spirit of Apollo, released a video for one of the album’s tracks, “The People Tree” which features David Byrne, Chali 2na, Gift of Gab and Z-Trip. The backbone of N.A.S.A. is producers Squeak E. Clean and DJ Zegon, but almost every track features several artists (M.I.A, Santogold,… Continue reading New N.A.S.A. video: “The People Tree”
“I Am The Real Santo Gold”
Jeweler/infomercial star/musician??/worst person of 2009 Santo Gold officially wrestled the name from super cool musician Santogold, after all kinds of a legal mess. As if making Santogold change her name to Santigold wasn’t enough, he made a terrible rap/spoken word/mess about how right he is. The best part? You can buy the song from his… Continue reading “I Am The Real Santo Gold”
B.o.B
I think I have some sort of a connection to the rap artist B.o.b. If you can figure out why, I’ll shake your hand. Anyway, his newest single “I’ll be in the sky” is playing on heavy rotation on the music video circuit. And I normally wouldn’t care about the music video circuit, but every… Continue reading B.o.B
New Lonely Island: “Boombox (ft. Julian Casablancas)”
On the last day before the release of their debut album, Incredibad, The Lonely Island released another track, “Boombox,” featuring Julian Casablancas of The Strokes. Much like their last single “I’m On A Boat,” the song plays on more subtle humor than, say, “Jizz in My Pants” or “Dick In A Box.” It’s all about… Continue reading New Lonely Island: “Boombox (ft. Julian Casablancas)”
