Summer seems like so long ago now doesn’t it? Remember Bear Hands, the guys we were pleasantly surprised with musically at the Siren Festival? Well, they’ve just released a video and free mp3 for their single “What A Drag” which has been floating around for quite some time but is now officially out with a… Continue reading [MP3 + Video] Bear Hands: “What A Drag”

Animal Collective makes epic video for Brother Sport (what’s new?)
It’s been about a year since Animal Collective unleashed the now legendary Merriweather Post Pavilion on the world, and yet they’re STILL stealing headlines with material from the album. This time, it’s a really cool video for “Brother Sport,” that is equal parts beautiful, terrifying, inspiring, psychedelic, and comforting. Confusing? Wait ’til the eggs and… Continue reading Animal Collective makes epic video for Brother Sport (what’s new?)
Islands gives Michael Cera drugs and shoots a music video
You heard me right. Islands. Cera. Drugs. Video. Looks like our man, MC buys some shady pills to to tune of Islands’ “No You Don’t” and goes crazy with lights (!!) and trees (!!) and a guy (!!) who is everywhere (!!). It’s a video in the style of a 90s anti-drug film, which I… Continue reading Islands gives Michael Cera drugs and shoots a music video
[MP3 + Video] Bromheads: “Magic Number”
When I first listened to “Magic Number,” courtesy of UK-based lamp-lovers Bromheads, I enjoyed it but at the same time wasn’t particularly thrilled. So I went back to saving babies from house fires, like any usual day, but I realized that after about three minutes the song was irrevocably stuck in my head. Irrevocably. So… Continue reading [MP3 + Video] Bromheads: “Magic Number”
Magic Wands all about the wind and confetti in “Kiss Me Dead” video
We all love fake wind, fake driving and confetti, don’t we? With oversized tiger heads? And ferns? Good, I’m glad we’re all on the same page. So let me direct you, now to the new Magic Wands video for “Kiss Me Dead.” It was clearly shot in a basement on a low budget, and that’s… Continue reading Magic Wands all about the wind and confetti in “Kiss Me Dead” video
[MP3 + Video] Angus & Julia Stone: “And The Boys”
What’s that? New music from Australian sibling sensations Angus & Julia Stone?? With Angus’s new side project, Lady Of The Sunshine, receiving its fair share of press lately, he seems quite willing to let Julia take the reigns on “And The Boys”, the new single from their forthcoming (March 2010) sophomore LP, Down The Way.… Continue reading [MP3 + Video] Angus & Julia Stone: “And The Boys”
[MP3] Fredrik: “Vinterbarn”
Fredrik offered up a new mp3 today along with an accompanying video over at Stereogum, and they’re both awesome. The video is all sorts of eerie, as was said previously about Fredrik’s “Locked in the Basement” track, so their forthcoming album, Trilogi, appears to be getting darker by the day. I’ve said plenty about Fredrik… Continue reading [MP3] Fredrik: “Vinterbarn”
The Woodlands premiere video for “Can We Stay”
Portland couple/duo The Woodlands released their very excellent self-titled debut album earlier this year and now they’ve made a video for single “Can We Stay,” such a cute song! Very talented people here! If you like leaves and Portland and remodeling the insides of vans, you’ll love the video. And I’ll love you. Because those… Continue reading The Woodlands premiere video for “Can We Stay”
WHY? release one video for “These Hands” and “January Twenty Something”
I guess it makes sense to package together “These Hands” and “January Twenty Something,” the four minute one-two punch that begins WHY?‘s Eskimo Snow. The songs themselves are tonally different, which makes the sudden change from fantastical, bizarre narrative to live band performance work. And even if you don’t like either half of the video,… Continue reading WHY? release one video for “These Hands” and “January Twenty Something”
Vampire Weekend release video for new single “Cousins”
Vampire Weekend is back, everybody! They’re going to be releasing the first big album of the new decade, Contra, on January 12, but for now they’re teasing the eager fans with singles. We first heard the softer side with “Horchata,” a pretty good little song. And now we have the faster-paced “Cousins.” And awww the… Continue reading Vampire Weekend release video for new single “Cousins”
