So it looks like things have escalated in the I’m-a-prepubescent-boy-who-looks-a-bit-too-metrosexual-for-my-own-good-and-caters-to-8-year-old-girl wars. In a move that totally may or may not have left the Bieberverse speechless, this kid Cody Simpson seems to have been spawned in the depths of hell, or something. Where did he come from? Is this new? How far behind the times am… Continue reading The Worst Things: Cody Simpson

Cee-Lo Green covers Band Of Horses’ “No One’s Gonna Love You” in NSFW video
Cee-Lo Green, of Gnarls Barkley, has covered one of my favorite Band Of Horses‘ songs, “No One’s Gonna Love You”, for his upcoming solo record, Lady Killer, due out this Fall. While the MP3 hasn’t been made available, the music video just surfaced and it’s romantic, cinematic, sad, and awesome. And NSFW.

Harlem go acoustic on “Tila and I” in streets of Amsterdam
Harlem released their great LP, Hippies, a few months ago, toured extensively and now can be found playing a wonderful acoustic version of “Tila and I” on the streets of Amsterdam. Great! Amsterdam Acoustics made the video, which features a very tired-looking Harlem playing a much softer, sweeter version of the song. It’s an interesting… Continue reading Harlem go acoustic on “Tila and I” in streets of Amsterdam
MGMT constructs possibly evil machine in nutzo video for “It’s Working”
I talked a lot about the art of the music video after MGMT premiered their last video for “Flash Delirium.” Well now the boys are back with another video for “It’s Working” from their love-it-or-hate-it sophomore album, Congratulations (for the record, I loved it). The new video is more of the same confusing possible metaphors… Continue reading MGMT constructs possibly evil machine in nutzo video for “It’s Working”
Veronica Falls make too-cool-for-school video for “Beachy Head”
British group Veronica Falls has made a extra-cool, grey-toned, art-house music video for their single “Beachy Head.” Aside from the obviously fun name, the track is great. It’s real head-sticker (if you will). The video is just the coolest of cool. I’m jealous I’m not this cool… Please help me be cool, Veronica Falls? Veronica… Continue reading Veronica Falls make too-cool-for-school video for “Beachy Head”
Dum Dum Girls release silly funtimes video for “Bhang Bhang, I’m A Burnout”
Lo-fi girl group Dum Dum Girls recently released a pretty good debut record, and now have their second video from it for the single “Bhang Bhang, I’m A Burnout.” I called the song a “cute pop track” in my review of I Will Be, and I not only stand by that initial assessment, but also… Continue reading Dum Dum Girls release silly funtimes video for “Bhang Bhang, I’m A Burnout”
1960s Mexican group Los Beatniks does the “Tampico Twist”
In 1962, Mexican rock ‘n’ roll group Los Beatniks did a song called “Tampico Twist.” The song was recorded the same year by Bill Haley and His Comets, but my internet research this morning yielded no more information about either the band (not to be confused with Argentinean band of the same name) or the… Continue reading 1960s Mexican group Los Beatniks does the “Tampico Twist”

Yesterday, Knox Road staple Wakey!Wakey! and The Family Records released the music video for “Light Outside”, one of my favorite tunes off the stunning Almost Everything I wish I’d Said The Last Time I Saw You…, featured in an earlier post here.

The album is significantly less layered than previous material, but still contains the glitchy stuff Lali Puna has become known for. Pick it up from Morr Music, and check out the video for “That Day”, full of animated smiling bears,… Continue reading Lali Puna’s new album, Our Inventions, released today
