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”
Themselves out-creep damn near everyone on their video for “Roman is as Roman Does”
Over the past week or so, we’ve gotten two really strange videos: Grizzly Bear’s “Ready, Able,” and The Most Serene Republic’s “Heavens to Purgatory.” Well, Themselves must have seen those two videos and were all “screw that noise” and went to work on the weirdest video (featuring cupcakes) EVER. Like, I can’t even explain what… Continue reading Themselves out-creep damn near everyone on their video for “Roman is as Roman Does”
The Most Serene Republic out-creep Grizzly Bear on Heavens To Purgatory video
So, um, Jamie’s decision to give Grizzly Bear the honors of creepiest video of ’09 was short-lived. The Most Serene Republic just set off an entirely different form of creepy on their new video for “Heavens To Purgatory.” Strewn body parts, instruments, and old-school clothing in a Victorian dollhouse setting, what more could we ask… Continue reading The Most Serene Republic out-creep Grizzly Bear on Heavens To Purgatory video
Grizzly Bear makes the new creepiest video of 2009
Hey, remember that time Grizzly Bear creeped everybody out with the face-melting/exploding video for “Two Weeks?” Creepy stuff, for sure. But somehow they’ve out-creeped themselves with a claymation video for “Ready, Able.” It’s like a rainbow got drunk and vomited up horrible clay creatures who then tried in vain to figure out their awful place… Continue reading Grizzly Bear makes the new creepiest video of 2009
[Video] Headlights live @ The Guest Apartment
More Headlights? Awesome! They recently played a set at Baeble Music’s The Guest Apartment and it came out just peachy. Watch “Secrets” below in it’s intimate, lounge-y glory. Stripped-down Headlights still = awesome Headlights. Watch the full concert at baeblemusic.com Bonus: Headlights – “Telephones” [MP3] (from Wildlife)
Tegan and Sara release video for “Hell”
I can’t even begin to express how excited I am for tomorrow’s official release of Tegan and Sara’s newest album, Sainthood. Teasers aplenty in the meantime, including this video playing off the “twin thing”. (Note: I am a twin as well. Fraternal, though. And different sexes. So yeah, I guess this doesn’t resonate at all.)… Continue reading Tegan and Sara release video for “Hell”
[Video] Kings of Convenience: “The Boat Behind”
I only now stumbled across this Kings of Convenience video, which came out a month ago, for their song “Boat Behind”. I dare you not to feel nostalgic while watching this video much better suited for summer days than the wintry mix we’re coming upon in the U.S. Hopefully this gets you psyched for tomorrow’s… Continue reading [Video] Kings of Convenience: “The Boat Behind”
LOST Babies!
I’m assuming there’s a whole legion of about four people out there who still watch LOST, and have stuck with it through five seasons. I’m one of them, so for the three people out there who care, this one’s for you! So basically it’s LOST Babies, and while it’s mostly what you would expect from… Continue reading LOST Babies!
Modest Mouse unleashes video for “The Whale Song”
I guess I’m a day late on this, but the awesomeness here completely outweighs the lack of punctuality. It’s a new Modest Mouse video! It’s for “The Whale Song,” and looks like exactly what I’d expect from a Modest Mouse video. There’s sub-primitive Iron Man technology, Isaac Brock playing the guitar while sort of floating,… Continue reading Modest Mouse unleashes video for “The Whale Song”
