I may just have watched the best music video for the whole month of May, namely the video for Cut Copy’s latest single “Hearts on Fire.” I don’t know exactly what makes love this video so much, but I, personally, find it beautifully brilliant. Basically we’ve got a heartbroken dude, that can’t seem to shake the feeling of unfulfilled love, a sentiment that follows him around, literally, like a dark cloud. Sit back, stretch your…
Kanye West: ‘Flashing Lights’ (3rd and final version)
As expect Kanye’s back with the 3rh and final version for his forth single off Graduation, “Flashing Lights.” The first two were mediocre at best, but this one’s down right terrible. It’s creepy, badly directed and with no plot or meaning what so ever. Not that a music video should make any sense, but this one’s no fun at all. Just look at it, it’s like a bad B movie Adams Family readaptation. A total…
New Weezer video: ‘Pork And Beans’
The Red Album is closer by the minute and with already four official leaks out, add this new video for Weezer’s first single off the new album, “Pork And Beans,” the anticipation is getting almost too hard to bare. Let me tell your from the start the video simply rocks! Basically it’s a video about …Youtube videos and whenever Weezer tries out parody, you can be sure that you’ll have loads of fun. Cameos of…
New Kanye West video: ‘Flashing Lights’ (2nd version)
Kanye’s back with yet another video version for his explosive track “Flashing Lights,” the second in a three video series. If you’re memory still serves you well, you’ll recall the first video, directed by Spike Jonze, was centered around a tied up Kanye, a shovel, gasoline and a half-dressed woman. This, second one, directed by Bill Pollock, is a lot more cloudy, ambiguous and especially sexy, most probably because we get to see less Kanye…
Apocalyptica: ‘I Don’t Care’ Video Posted Online
The Finnish quartet has delighted us once again with another great video: “I Don’t Care”. This time, they worked with Three Days Grace frontman Adam Gontier, which also appears in the clip. The video can be watched here. But if you think this is the only thing they’ve been up to, you’re really wrong. They enlisted the help of Fuel frontman Toryn Green to handle the lead vocals for their North American tour, which began…
New Bon Iver video: ‘Skinny Love’ (Live on “Later… With Jools Holland”)
After we presented Bon Iver’s latest music video for the beautifully haunting The Wolves (Act I and II), Justin Vernon is back with another video to delight both our eyes and ears, this time, however, with a live performance on “Later… with Jools Holland.” Here, Justin played a wonderful performance of his “Skinny Love,” from Bon Iver’s 2007 debut album For Emma, Forever Ago. Check it out bellow.
New Tapes ‘n Tapes video: ‘Hang Them All’
Tapes ‘n Tapes’ sophomore album, Walk It Off, didn’t impress me too much, not as much as their debut album anyway, but their main, featured single “Hang Them All” makes up for half of the uninteresting tracks. More on why I love this song on a previous post of mine, when I put the MP3 up for download. Bellow you can watch the video for the single, which is ever better then the song, being…
New Black Keys video: ‘Strange Times’ (live on Conan O’Brien)
Attack & Release has been spinning like crazy in my play list for the last couple of weeks and it doesn’t show any sign of slowing down any time soon. A good remark would be that I’ve grown intoxicated with The Black Keys’ music, so consequently I’m gonna try to spread the awesomeness further to you guys. Last night the Akron duo performed live for Conan O’Brien’s Late Night Show, where they played their latest…
New Manu Chao video: ‘Politik Kills’
Released last year, Manu Chao’s “La Radiolina” went on to gain loads of critical acclaim and the title as the new latin rock icon. However, as it’s always the case with awesome art in a radio friendly world, it of course got terribly overlooked and didn’t get the amount of success it deserved. “Politik Kills” his famous single from La Radiolina just got recently pimped with a delayed video, a child soldier named Christian who…
New Caribou video: ‘Irene’
Daniel Snaith (read Caribou) return with a fantastic effort last year, when he unveiled his paradisaical Andorra (no, not the financial paradise). “Irene” was one of my favorite tracks from it, so you can imagine the joy when I first set eyes on the video a few hours ago. Speaking of the video, it centeres the song’s vibe and ideas perfectly, featuring calming and serene footages of nature, sleepy animals, lazy insects and still waters…
